The functions of applied potential to the photoelectrocatalytic degradation process of methyl orange were investigated. When using 0.05 M NaCl and under different applied potentials, the degradation rate increased obviously with increasing applied potential. When the applied potential was between 0.6 V-1.0 V, the degradation rate was enhanced drastically. The detected current values got larger as the applied potential increased from 0 up to 1.2 V. There was no direct electro-degradation to the dye in the solution. The applied potential and the irradiated light had synergetic effect when they were applied to the solution at the same time. While after irradiation for 0 to 60 min, with the increasing reaction time, methyl orange absorption peak intensity shrank obviously. The azo and benzene groups in methyl orange degraded totally under photocatalytic process.

Different morphologies of nanoZnO have been synthesized by hydrothermal method and ethanol-assisted hydrothermal method, the quantum yield has been improved by noble metal doping, and also the range of spectral absorption has been widened. Then the products are used in the photocatalytic process of UDMH waste water. It is found that the crystallite size of the products is about 41~46nm, the maximum degradation rates of ZnO/Ag are 92.7% under the ultraviolet light, and 80.2% under the sunlight. The variation of the photocatalytic middle-product under different light sources is analyzed and it is found that the middle-product is decomposed more quickly and throughly under sunlight.

TiO2/Styrofoam composite fiber membranes were synthesized by using an electrospinning system for water purification applications. Composite fiber membrane was fabricated from precursor solution prepared by dissolving Styrofoam in the mixture of tetrahydrofuran (THF), citronella oil and cajuput oil. The precursor solutions is mixed with TiO2powder with three variations based on the concentration (1:15,1:20 and 1:40). Textile dye with 50 ppm of concentration was performed as a model of waste water. The structure and morphology of each membrane were characterized by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The photocatalytic activity was investigated under the bulb light with 60 watt of power in the box of photocatalytic test. Observation of photocatalytic process were performed for 30 hours. The quantitative data of the decrease in the concentration of wantex solution were measured by using UV-Vis spectrometer and simple spectrometer which was developed recently. It was shown that there are significant decrease of the concentration of wantex solutions performed by each membrane. As many as 69% of wantex solution have been successfully degraded for 30 hours under the bulb light.

The factors that influence the performance of Bi20TiO32were discussed, and the removal of TOC in the analogue waste water was also examined. The shorter the light wavelength or the more the intensity, the more efficient the photocatalytic process. Different substance has different optimum pH for being photodegraded by photocatalyst Bi20TiO32, which may be related with its surface charge. Aeration have little benefit for decomposing the organics. Some organics like methyl orange and phenol can be photodegraded by Bi20TiO32completely. Bi20TiO32has visible-light activity for the degradation of organics.

The photocatalytic degradation process of waste water was usually influenced by many factors, such as different ions, addition reagent and pH value. In order to investigate the effect of ions strength in the photocatalytic process, the anions and cations were systematically investigated with P25 TiO2 photocatalyst with Rhodamine B (RB) as waste water in this work. The results showed that the cations of low valence showed minimum negative effect on degradation rate and the most anions showed enhance the degradation rate of RB. The ions strength showed random in the photocatalytic process.

Abstract Using titanium dioxide, photocatalytic degradation of waste water polluted by commercial mercaptans (80% t-butyl mercaptan and 20% methyl ethyl sulfide) was investigated in a continuous photoreactor in the presence of UV irradiation. The reaction was performed at different pH of solution, intensity of irradiation, and initial concentration of odorant. Kinetics and mechanism of photocatalytic decomposition of mercaptans were studied by ex situ FTIR measurements of intermediates. The results showed that the photocatalytic process for degradation of mercaptans was an efficient method for mineralization of sulfur odorants in waste water. A proposed mechanism of mineralization of mercaptan was presented based on the results.
