Book Synopsis Titanium Dioxide Photocatalysis by : Vladimiro Dal Santo
Download or read book Titanium Dioxide Photocatalysis written by Vladimiro Dal Santo and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-05-27 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the seminal work of Fujishima et al. dates back to 1971, TiO2 still remains the most diffused and studied semiconductor, employed in photo-oxidation processes for cleantech (i.e., polluted water and air treatment), in solar fuel production (mainly hydrogen production by water photo splitting), and in Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU) processes by CO2 photoreduction. The eleven articles, among them three reviews, in this book cover recent results and research trends of various aspects of titanium dioxide photocatalysis, with the chief aim of improving the final efficiency of TiO2-based materials. Strategies include doping, metal co-catalyst deposition, and the realization of composites with plasmonic materials, other semiconductors, and graphene. Photocatalysts with high efficiency and selectivity can be also obtained by controlling the precise crystal shape (and homogeneous size) and the organization in superstructures from ultrathin films to hierarchical nanostructures. Finally, the theoretical modeling of TiO2 nanoparticles is discussed and highlighted. The range of topics addressed in this book will stimulate the reader’s interest as well as provide a valuable source of information for researchers in academia and industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Titanium dioxide (TiO2), a semiconductor metal oxide, has been used in heterogeneous photocatalysis for the destruction of organic, inorganic, and biological materials. The chief objectives of my doctoral research are to generate kinetic data and to develop engineering models for photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) using TiO2 thin films for current challenges in "solid"--Solid and air-solid environmental remediation. Three topics are studied in detail: i. TiO2 Photocatalytic Oxidation for Formaldehyde Removal from Air (Air-Solid) Formaldehyde (CH2O) is a toxic air contaminant present in industrial, commercial, and residential buildings. A novel rotating honeycomb adsorbent coupled with a PCO reactor was demonstrated by F. Shiraishi and coworkers for CH2O oxidation. They showed that their cyclic adsorbent D PCO reactor could oxidize CH2O to concentrations below the WHO guideline, but they made no attempt to model the system. In this project we modeled their batch system at transient and steady states. In addition, we applied the batch model kinetic parameters to design a continuous system for typical residential home challenges. ii. TiO2 Photobleaching of Dye Layers as a Field Analysis Method ("Solid"-Solid) Technological advances in the past decade allow glass manufacturers to deposit thin, photoactive, nano-sized TiO2 layers on glass billed as "self-cleaning" surfaces. Field installation of such "self-cleaning" window glass for office buildings or residential homes will require the creation of field analysis methods to characterize the initial and continuing catalyst activity variations with time and environmental conditions. In this project we characterized the PCO properties of commercial Pilkington Activ"!glass by oxidizing deposited organic dyes (a) to show visual decolorization and recovery of the aesthetic clarity of the glass and (b) to determine the light-driven reaction kinetics on Activ"!glass. i.

This book was released on 2010-11-10 with total page 740 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past few decades, mankind has observed an unprecedented and remarkable growth in industry, resulting in a more prosperous lifestyle for peoples of many countries. In developing countries, however, explosive industrial growth is just now beginning to raise the living standards of the people. Most industries, especially in these developing countries, are still powered by the burning of fossil fuels; con- quently, a lack of clean energy resources has caused environmental pollution on an unprecedented large and global scale. Toxic wastes have been relentlessly released into the air and water leading to serious and devastating environmental and health problems while endangering the planet and life itself with the effects of global warming. To address these urgent environmental issues, new catalytic and photocatalytic processes as well as open-atmospheric systems are presently being developed that can operate at room temperature while being totally clean and ef?cient and thus environmentally harmonious. Essential to technologies harnessing the abundant solar energy that reaches the earth are the highly functional photocatalytic proce- es that can utilize not only UV light, but also visible light.
Book Synopsis Immobilized Titanium Dioxide for Emerging Contaminant Removal in Wastewater by : Yasmine Kamal Abdel-Maksoud Abdel-Salam
Download or read book Immobilized Titanium Dioxide for Emerging Contaminant Removal in Wastewater written by Yasmine Kamal Abdel-Maksoud Abdel-Salam and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: There have been rising concerns about emerging contaminants that are not efficiently removed by conventional wastewater treatment plants. TiO2 photocatalysis is one of the promising routes for sustainable wastewater treatment. Research on the use of TiO2 photocatalysis for water/wastewater treatment for the removal of persistent non-biodegradable emerging water pollutant is active worldwide. Since the mid-1970s the viability of photocatalytic degradation of organic compounds in water using TiO2 was demonstrated. More than 1,000 substances have been degraded using TiO2. Despite the extensive research on photocatalytic oxidation using TiO2, pilot and demonstration plants through the last four decades are still countable. Widespread use of photocatalytic treatment of water and wastewater require the development of an innovative photocatalytic reactor that is efficient, reliable, simple to construct, easy to maintain, has low energy consumption, low capital and operating cost and provides easy separation of catalyst after treatment ends. In an attempt to develop this desired photo-reactor, three photo-reactors were designed and constructed: the slurry water-bell photo-reactor, the immobilized water-bell photo-reactor and the immobilized tray photo-reactor. The slurry water-bell photo-reactor is based on generating a thin water film to allow for solar light penetration for photo-catalyst activation and continuous oxygenation. Recirculating the reaction solution at a high flow rate ensures good mixing and avoids dead zones in the photo-reactor. the reactor performance for degradation of phenol, as a model compound, was evaluated using commercial TiO2. Factors affecting the degradation efficiency were studied including catalyst loading, light intensity, initial pollutant concentration, oxidant addition and exposure time. Dissolved oxygen levels, temperature and pH were monitored through all the conducted tests. The performance of the slurry water-bell was compared with other photo-reactors using two benchmarks: the degradation rate constant and the reactor throughput. The reactor throughput is a function of the treated volume, treatment duration and reactor area footprint, thus it is as a versatile indicator for comparison between reactors of different types and geometries as well as selection of reactor configurations suitable for scale-up and commercialization. TiO2 was immobilized on sand grains for use as dispersed photo-catalyst in the water-bell reactor. Immobilization of TiO2 was conducted by two methods; direct immobilization using sol-gel synthesis and binding with epoxy coating. Photo-catalyst abrasion was encountered. The strong mixing conditions and flow through the recirculating pump resulted in high abrasion of the photo-catalyst off the sand surface. The tray photo-reactor was developed to avoid the high friction of the photo-catalyst particles in the recirculating pump while maintain fulfilling all the other photocatalytic process requirements of light penetration, continuous oxygen supply, and turbulent flow. The immobilized tray photocatalytic reactor uses a fixed-bed of TiO2 supported on sand grains. The reactor maintains a thin water film over the supported TiO2 catalytic bed. TiO2 was immobilized on the sand grains using 3 different immobilization approaches: 1) direct immobilization using the sol gel technique, 2) coating with TiO2/cement grout; and (3) binding with TiO2-epoxy coating. Reactor performance for the degradation of phenol as a model compound was evaluated for the three photo-catalysts. Immobilization of TiO2 on sand particles using epoxy was successful in achieving the highest phenol degradation and resistance to abrasion. The water turbidity remained unchanged indicating photo-catalyst resistance to abrasion even after multiple use of the catalytic bed. Successful operation of the tray photo-reactor in the continuous mode was also achieved. The performance of the immobilized tray photo-reactor was compared with other photo-reactors using three benchmarks: the initial degradation rate, the reactor throughput and turbidity. The immobilized tray photo-reactor is suitable for scale-up and commercialization due to five distinctive features which are: modular design; integrated storage; passive oxygenation; absence of need for UV transmitting components that are susceptible to breakage and optical losses, and simple and cheap components.
Book Synopsis Assessment of Titanium Dioxide Films for Photocatalytic Treatment of Greywater by : Lorena Lopez Vanegas
Download or read book Assessment of Titanium Dioxide Films for Photocatalytic Treatment of Greywater written by Lorena Lopez Vanegas and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the need for safe and clean water has increased globally over the years, recycling wastewater has gained great importance not only for economic reasons but to help the environment through the reduction of the contamination load by using recycled water for those final purposes that do not require drinking water quality. In this regard, greywater is seen as one of the most appropriate and promising sources of wastewater with great potential for treatment and reuse as it represents between 60% to 75% of the domestic wastewater daily volume and contains a lower concentration of organic compounds and fewer pathogens when compared to other wastewater sources (Nolde, 2000b, Friedler, 2004, Abu Ghunmi et al., 2011, Eriksson et al., 2002). This project investigated the potential of heterogeneous TiO2 photocatalytic processing for domestic greywater treatment through evaluating the TiO2 photocatalytic activity against methyl orange in the presence of a wide range of individual greywater components. The research was developed in three stages; in stage one the design of highly efficient large-scale TiO2 photocatalytic films was achieved, in stage two the full characterisation of the TiO2 films was done including the evaluation of the photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 films towards UV photodegradation of methyl orange (probe species) and in stage three the assessment of large-scale TiO2 films for the photocatalytic treatment of individual greywater components was carried out. A TiO2 sol-gel formulation used for the synthesis of the TiO2 colloidal solution was found to be appropriate for the preparation of large-scale TiO2 films since these showed high photocatalytic response. This was the first time that this formulation was successfully used for the preparation of large-scale TiO2 films even though it has been previously used for coatings on different types of fabrics (Tung and Daoud, 2009, Tung and Daoud, 2011). For the immobilisation of this formulation, a doctor blade coating technique was found to allow for preparation of more efficient TiO2 films than a spray coating technique. Acid frosted soda-lime glass substrate allowed for deposition of continuous and uniform nanostructured anatase films with high photocatalytic activity. The photodegradation of aqueous solution of methyl orange over anatase TiO2 films exhibited pseudo-first-order kinetics only during the first catalytic oxidation cycle. Deviations from first order kinetics in subsequent catalytic runs were ascribed to film activation as a result of modifications of the catalyst surface during the initial cycle. These results were the baseline for the assessment of the TiO2 photocatalytic processing for greywater treatment. A detailed study of the photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 films towards the UV photodegradation of methyl orange in the presence of twenty four different individual greywater components was carried out. Reactions trends were identified for the effect of the tested individual greywater components during the initial cycle of treatment and the effect of their degradation products during a second cycle. It was found that some key components present in greywater have deleterious effects on both catalyst performance and activation while others were found to assist the catalyst and enhanced its activation. However, it was only possible to develop a partial predictive model of the performance of the TiO2 films for real greywater situations because of the complexity of the competing processes involved. Overall, in this study the preparation of highly efficient anatase TiO2 photocatalytic films suitable for wastewater treatment was achieved. Reaction trends for the effects of a wide range of domestic greywater components on the TiO2 catalyst performance and re-use were identified. These findings show that there is more to investigate about the behaviour of the TiO2 catalyst towards individual greywater components before TiO2 photocatalytic processing can be fully understood and assessed for the treatment of complex wastewater streams such as greywater.
