Inactivation Efficiency

Photocatalytic inactivation of algae, Anabaena, Microcystis, and Melosira, was carried out with TiO2-coated Pyrex hollow glass beads under the illumination of UV light (370nm wavelength). After being irradiated with UV light in the presence of the TiO2-coated Pyrex glass beads, Anabaena and Microcystis, known as typical cyanobacteria, lost their photosynthetic activity, and the string of Anabaena cells and the colonies of Microcystis cells were completely separated into individual spherical ones. In the case of Melosira, which is a typical diatom, however, somewhat lower photocatalytic inactivation efficiency was obtained, which was believed to be due to the presence of the inorganic siliceous wall surrounding the cells of Melosira. The TiO2-coated hollow glass beads could successfully be employed for the practical application in a eutrophicated river under sunlight. More than 50% of the chlorophyll-a concentration could be reduced by the action of TiO2 photocatalysis.

Palladium (Pd) nanoparticles were prepared on photocatalytic TiO2-coated glass substrate by a photodeposition process and the optical hydrogen sensing properties were examined at room temperature. The TiO2 coatings were prepared on a non-alkaline glass substrate by a sol-gel process and hot water treatment. Pd nanoparticles were deposited on the TiO2 film by photodeposition using UV light. The obtained Pd/TiO2 thin film showed remarkable optical transmittance response to hydrogen gas at room temperature. The normalized transmittance of the Pd/TiO2 thin film at a wavelength of 640 nm decreased to 0.9 on exposing the film to hydrogen gas for only 5 s. This transmittance decrease is considered to be due to a gaschromic effect of the TiO2 photocatalytic coating.

Pengoksidaanfoto benzena fasa gas menggunakan saput tipis TiO2 yang disinari lampu ultralembayung telah dikaji. Saput tipis ini disediakan melalui kaedah celup angkat menggunakan sol–gel TiO2. Tindak balas yang sama juga telah dijalankan menggunakan saput tipis TiO2 yang didop dengan Cu2+ dan Fe3+ dengan nisbah mol TiO2 terhadap ion logam 1:0.005, 1:0.001, 1:0.0005 dan 1:0.0003. Hasil kajian menunjukkan mangkin TiO2 dengan pancaran cahaya UV (354 nm) mendegradasikan gas benzena sebanyak 90% dalam masa 55 minit. Walau bagaimanapun penambahan ion Fe3+ dengan nisbah 1:0.0005 meningkatkan peratusan degradasi benzena kepada 98% dalam masa 55 minit, sebaliknya penambahan Cu2+memberikan kesan negatif kepada aktiviti foto TiO2. Kajian juga memperoleh satu nilai optimum dengan aktiviti pemangkinan adalah tertinggi bagi kedua-dua ion Fe3+ dan Cu2+. Pengaruh panjang gelombang cahaya ke atas aktiviti foto TiO2 juga telah dikaji dengan menggunakan mangkin TiO2 dop Fe3+ dengan nisbah optimum. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa degradasi gas benzena meningkat dengan pengurangan tenaga cahaya yang dipancarkan. Kata kunci: Pemangkinanfoto; pengoksidaanfoto; saput tipis; TiO2 The gas phase photooxidation of benzene was investigated using TiO2 thin film irradiated with UV light source. The thin film was prepared via TiO2 sol gel dip coating method. The same reaction was also carried out using TiO2 doped with Cu2+ and Fe3+ with 1:0.005, 1:0.001, 1:0.0005 and 1:0.0003 mole ratios. The results showed that 90% of benzene was degraded after 55 minutes UV (354 nm) irradiation of the TiO2 thin film. However the addition of Fe3+ ions with 1:0.0005 mole ratio degraded 98% of benzene within 55 minutes. In contrast, Cu2+ ions however give a detrimental effect to the photoactivity of TiO2. An optimum ratio of dopant, where TiO2 showed the highest activity, was determined for both Fe3+ and Cu2+. The effect of different wave-length light source was also carried out using TiO2 doped Fe3+ with optimum ratio. The degradation of benzene was found to increase with decreasing light energy.

The authors investigated on the electrical property and the photo-catalytic activity of TiO2 thin films deposited in Ar+O2 atmosphere by RF magnetron sputtering. From the result of x-ray diffraction, the anatase phase was formed in TiO2 thin films. In TiO2 thin film deposited under a gas pressure of 3.0Pa, the contact angle of water showed 9 ﾟ, and the decomposition rate of Methylene Blue (measuring the absorbance of the reference light) showed -0.067 with UV light irradiation. Moreover, it revealed that the electric resistivity of TiO2 thin film deposited under the same conditions decreased from 8.0×103Ω･m to 1.4×10-2Ω･m with UV light irradiation.

There is a need for highly efficient photocatalysts, particularly for water purification. In this study, we fabricated a mesoporous TiO2 thin film on a boron-doped diamond (BDD) layer by a surfactant-assisted sol-gel method, in which self-assembled amphiphilic surfactant micelles were used as an organic template. Scanning electron microscopy revealed uniform mesopores, approximately 20 nm in diameter, that were hexagonally packed in the TiO2 thin film. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy clarified that the framework crystallized in the anatase phase. Current–voltage (I–V) measurements showed rectification features at the TiO2/BDD heterojunction, confirming that a p–n hetero-interface formed. The as-synthesized mesoporous TiO2/BDD worked well as a photocatalyst, even with a small volume of TiO2 (15 mm × 15 mm × c.a. 1.5 µm in thickness). The use of deep UV light (λ = 222 nm) as a light source was necessary to enhance photocatalytic activity, due to photo-excitation occurring in both BDD and TiO2.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of annealing temperature growth on Fe-TiO2 thin film photoactivity. This was made by mixing TTIP, AcAc, ethanol, and Iron Nitrate Nanohydrate, after which the obtained mixture was sprayed and annealed on the substrate for two hours using the coating method. The temperature was increased to 500°C, 550°C, and 600°C, with the thin film photoactivity determined in methylene blue using UV light for 5 hours with decreasing values of COD, BOD, and absorbance. The results show annealing temperature growth increased photoactivity of the thin film. The highest photoactivity at 600°C in degrading methylene blue with decreasing values of COD, BOD, and absorbance was 19.56%, 35.84%, and 66.70%, respectively

Carbon Analysis

Telah dilakukan penelitian mengenai pengaruh konsentrasi doping karbon pada lapisan tipis TiO2 yang ditumbuhkan dengan metode spray terhadap struktur kristal dan morfologi TiO2. Hasil karakterisasi SEM menunjukkan bahwa penambahan doping karbon dapat meningkatkan ukuran butir. Lapisan TiO2 doping karbon 8% diperoleh ukuran butir terbesar adalah 1.35 μm, sedangkan ukuran tekecilnya adalah 0.45 μm. Sementara itu, untuk lapisan tipis TiO2 didoping karbon 15% memiliki ukuran butir terbesar yaitu 1.76 μm dan terkecil 0.9 μm. Hasil XRD menunjukkan seluruh puncak difraksi lapisan tipis TiO2 dengan doping karbon 8% dan 15% merupakan TiO2 anatase. Ukuran kristal lapisan TiO2 didoping karbon 8% diperoleh sebesar 638,08 Å dan untuk pendopingan 15% karbon ukuran kristal lapisan tipis TiO2 adalah 638,09 Å, hal ini menunjukkan ukuran kristal kedua sampel tidak mengalami perubahan yang signifikan.   TiO2 thin film with carbon doping has been successfully grown by spray method. The research on the effect of carbon doping on crystal structure and morfology of TiO2 has been prepared by varying carbon concentration (8% and 15% carbon). Analysis of SEM showed that the addition of carbon may increase the grain size. Thin film of TiO2 doped carbon 8% has the largest grain size 1.35 μm, while the smallest grain size is 0.45 μm. Meanwhile, for thin film TiO2 doped carbon 15% has the largest grain size 1.76 μm and smallest 0.9 μm. The XRD results showed the entire diffraction peak of thin film TiO2 doped carbon 8% and 15% were TiO2 anatase. The crystal size of thin film TiO2 doped carbon 8% was obtained at 638.08 Å and for thin film TiO2 doped carbon 15% the crystalline size of TiO2 thin film was 638.09 Å, this shows that the crystal size of both samples did not change significantly.

Background: Improper storage and raw materials make peanut oil susceptible to Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). The semiconductor TiO2 photocatalysis technology is an effective technology which is widely used in sewage treatment, environmental protection and so on. Moreover, the photocatalytic efficiency can be improved by doping I. Method: The experiment is divided into two parts. In the first part, supported TiO2 thin film (STF) was prepared on the quartz glass tube (QGT) by the sol-gel and calcination method and the supported iodine doped supported TiO2 thin film (I-STF) was synthesized using potassium iodate solution. In the second part, the photocatalytic degradation of AFB1 was performed in a self-made photocatalytic reactor. The AFB1 was detected by ELISA kit. Results: The photocatalytic degradation of AFB1 has been proven to follow pseudo first-order reaction kinetics well (R2 > 0.95). The maximum degradation rate of 81.96%, which was reached at the optimum iodine concentration of 0.1mol/L, was 11.38% higher than that with undoped STF. The doping of iodine reduces the band-gap of TiO2, thereby increasing the photocatalytic response range. The proportion of Ti4+ in I-STF has decreased, which means that Ti4+ are replaced by I. The I-STF prepared at iodine concentration of 0.1mol/L has good photocatalytic properties.
