Titania/C TAB Nanoskeleton as adsorbent and photocatalyst for removal of alkylphenols dissolved in water

Abstract: We report here on the removal of alkylphenols (phenol, 4-n-propylphenol, 4-nheptylphenol and 4-nonylphenol) dissolved in water using the composite particles of nanocrystalline titania and alkyltrimethylammonium bromide (C n H 2n+1 N(CH 3 ) 3 Br, C n TAB; n = 12, 14, 16 and 18) (named as TiO 2 /C n TAB Nanoskeleton) as adsorbents and photocatalysts. In particular, the adsorption of alkylphenols onto TiO 2 /C n TAB Nanoskeleton in water was investigated in terms of hydrophobic interaction between alkylphenols an… Show more

“…The crux of photocatalytic technology was the development of highly efficient photocatalysts [3][4][5][6][7][8]. In accordance with previous reports, many metal oxides such as TiO 2 and ZnO 2 [9,10] had been developed as photocatalysts. Because single photocatalysts had some inherent characteristics, such as photo-etching and wide band gaps, their applications were limited [11,12].…”

“…The fastest degradation by photo-Fenton in the presence of iron-impregnated faujasite may arise from the larger amount of adsorbed micropollutants and/ or the higher production of radicals. A correlation between the time needed to degrade the pollutant and the contaminant surface coverage was already reported for both photocatalysis and photo-Fenton processes [34,43,44]. The previous studies highlighted that a high adsorption of contaminant increases the efficiency of the degradation process.…”

“…TiO 2 banyak digunakan sebagai semikonduktor untuk degradasi karena mampu mendegradasi senyawa-senyawa organik dan non-organik. Sampai saat ini banyak penelitian yang membuktikan kemampuan fotokatalisis dengan semikonduktor TiO 2 pada degradasi limbah organik dan non-organik seperti zat pewarna sintetik [14,16,17], fenol [1,18] dan krom [2,3].…”

“…Dengan menggabungkan fotokatalis dan adsorben, diharapkan kontak fotokatalis dengan polutan menjadi lebih optimal. Polutan yang teradsorbsi oleh penyangga dapat langsung dioksidasi oleh fotokatalis menjadi CO 2 dan H 2 O dalam waktu yang cukup lama untuk menjadi jenuh sehingga proses degradasi polutan dapat berlangsung lebih efisien [18].…”
