Regeneration approaches for TiO2 immobilized photocatalyst used in the elimination of emerging contaminants in water

Enhancement of the intrinsic photocatalytic activity of TiO2 in the degradation of 1,3,5-triazine herbicides by doping with N,F

“…Titanium dioxide is one of the preferred semiconductors for water purification by photocatalytic approach [10][11][12] for the low toxicity, chemical stability and superior performance. Atrazine removal by photocatalytic treatment with TiO 2 -based photocatalysts has been studied by various authors, also very recently [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Conventional TiO 2 has a band gap, e.g.…”

Influence of Mg, Cu, and Ni Dopants on Amorphous TiO2 Thin Films Photocatalytic Activity

“…The thin film degradation was not detected using TiO 2 with higher dopant concentration. The reactivation of such catalysts has to be taken into account considering the economic implications [67]. The strength of TiO 2 films and adherence are relevant for repetitive applications.…”

A facile and novel strategy to synthesize reduced TiO2 nanotubes photoelectrode for photoelectrocatalytic degradation of diclofenac

“…However, the visible light absorption capacity and photocatalytic (PC) performance of pristine TiO 2 NTs was greatly restricted due to the wide band bap energy and free space between the one-dimensional structures. From then on, a great deal of efforts has been conducted (Loannou et al, 2011;Silva et al, 2013;Justo et al, 2013;Clarizia et al, 2014;Miranda-García et al, 2014;Moustakas et al, 2014).…”
