TiO2 based Photocatalysis membranes: An efficient strategy for pharmaceutical mineralization

Preparation, modification and antifouling properties of polyaniline conductive membranes for water treatment: a comprehensive review

“…Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) is an advanced metal oxide semiconductor and is widely used in electronic devices, 122 coatings, 123 and photoelectrocatalysis. 124 Compared with CNT, rGO, MXene and other materials, TiO 2 with semiconductor properties is slightly less conductive. However, its superior photoelectric conversion ability provides more possibilities for the application of PANI conductive membranes.…”

Implication of nanotechnology to reduce the environmental risks of waste associated with the COVID-19 pandemic

“… 63 The ROS formed at the surface of TiO 2 (˙OH and O 2 − ˙) due to UV activation, have good performance to degrade the capsid and or the envelope proteins of non-enveloped viruses as well as the phospholipids of the enveloped ones. 64 In addition, due to the resulting leaching and degradation of nucleic acids, the virus particles eventually become inactive, as shown in Fig. 7 .…”

High-Strength and Ultrathin Photocatalytic Membranes with High-Loading Catalysts for Water Treatment

“…Photocatalytic technology can directly degrade organic pollutants into CO 2 and H 2 O, thus offering benefits such as low energy consumption, high efficiency, wide sources, and low cost. It has been extensively studied and applied in wastewater treatment and gas purification fields. − Currently, various nanocatalysts, particularly green and efficient photocatalysts, have been developed and applied for the catalytic degradation of organic pollutants, including TiO 2 , ZnO, metal sulfides, and MOFs. − Among these photocatalysts, TiO 2 is well-known for its high efficiency, outstanding stability, long duration, and low cost. In general, catalysts are directly added to wastewater to degrade organic pollutants.…”
