The mechanism of azo-dyes adsorption on the titanium dioxide surface and their photocatalytic degradation over samples with various anatase/rutile ratios
AbstractThe discharge of effluents from the textile industry into water bodies has a severe impact on water quality. The photocatalytic degradation of two typical azo dyes used in the textile industry (Acid Brown 83 and Direct Blue 1) was studied using the catalysts titanium dioxide (TiO
