Application of titanium dioxide photocatalysis to the degradation of environmental pollutants

Abstract

In this work photocatalytic processes of the Ti02 particles were compared to the commercial product Degussa P-25 films both in gas phase (air) and in water. It can be concluded that spectroscopic method is very fast and efficient for investigating the photocatalytic activities of transient species on the thin Ti02 films. Furthermore, the technique can be use to characterized different Ti02 products and their photocatalytic degradation of pollutants. /Kir10
