Pure and Fe(III)-doped TiO2 suspensions were prepared by the sol gel method with the use of titanium isopropoxide (Ti(OPri)4) as precursor material. The properties of doped materials were compared to TiO2 properties based on the characterization by thermal analysis (TG-DTA and DSC), X-ray powder diffractometry and spectroscopy measurements (FTIR). Both undoped and doped TiO2 suspensions were used to coat metallic substrate as a mean to make thin-film electrodes. Thermal treatment of the precursors at 400°C for 2 h in air resulted in the formation of nanocrystalline anatase TiO2. The thin-film electrodes were tested with respect to their photocatalytic performance for degradation of a textile dye in aqueous solution. The plain TiO2 remains as the best catalyst at the conditions used in this report.

Fe3+-doped TiO2/diatomite composite photocatalyst were prepared by sol-gel method with titanium isopropoxide used as precursor material. The samples were characterized by SEM, XRD, XPS, BET surface area analysis and UV-Vis techniques. The results showed that the optimum concentration of Fe3+ in the composite catalyst was 0.2wt% when the quantity of TiO2 loaded on the diatomite was 30.3wt%. Compared with the un-doped photocatalyst, the Fe3+-doped sample exhibited red shifts of absorption edge and significant enhancement of light absorption at 400～600 nm.

Tio2 Nanofiber

This research study aims at fabrication of fine size nitrogen doped TiO2 nanofiber using electrospinning method and evaluation of the performance of TiO2 in a photovoltaic cell under visible light irradiation. Undoped and N doped TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by sol gel method where titanium isopropoxide was used as the source of TiO2 and ammonium nitrate was used as the source of N dopant. TiO2 /PVA composite material was prepared by stabilizing TiO2 particle in to 10 wt % of PVA (aq) solution in order to prepare thin film that can be coated on photovoltaic (PV) cells. Coating of solid thin film PV cells by TiO2 /PVA nanofibers was conducted using electrospinning and doctor blade method. In both systems, doping the TiO2 with nitrogen improved its optical properties which it successfully lowered the band gap energy from 3.14 to 2.76 eV and shifted its optical response to the visible light region. The presence of O-H stretching vibration, O-H bending and vibration of the N-Ti bond contributed to an increased performance of the PV cells. The electrospun N-doped TiO2 produced better power output than doctor blade method coated PV cells with power of 0.040 and 0.026 mW, respectively.

Glass plate-supported nanostructure ZnO thin films were deposited by sol-gel spin coating. Films were preheated at275∘Cfor 10 minutes and annealed at 350, 450, and550∘Cfor 80 minutes. The ZnO thin films were transparent ca 80–90% in visible range and revealed that absorption edges at about 370 nm. Thec-axis orientation improves and the grain size increases which was indicated by an increase in intensity of the (002) peak at34.4∘in XRD corresponding to the hexagonal ZnO crystal. The photocatalytic degradation of X6G an anionic monoazo dye, in aqueous solutions, was investigated and the effects of some operational parameters such as the number of layer and reusability of ZnO nanostructure thin film were examined. The results showed that the five-layer coated glass surfaces have a very high photocatalytic performance.

Preferential Crystal Orientation

In this study, thin films of CaBi4Ti4O15with preferential crystal orientation were prepared by the chemical solution deposition (CSD) technique on a SiO2/Si substrate. The films consisted of a crystalline phase of bismuth-layer-structured dielectric. The as-deposited CaBi4Ti4O15thin films were crystallized in a conventional furnace annealing (RTA) under the temperature of 700 to 800°C for 1min. Structural and morphological characterization of the CBT thin films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The impedance analyzer HP4294A and HP4156C semiconductor parameters analyzer were used to measurement capacitance voltage (C-V) characteristics and leakage current density of electric field (J-E) characteristics by metal-ferroelectric-insulator- semiconductor (MFIS) structure. By the experimental result the CBT thin film in electrical field 20V, annealing temperature in 750°C the CBT thin film leaks the electric current is 1.88x10-7A/cm2and the memory window is 1.2V. In addition, we found the strongest (119) peak of as-deposited thin films as the annealed temperature of 750°C

Maximum Removal

Abstract This study is an attempt to the removal of Ciprofloxacin (CIP) antibiotic from simulated wastewater using a photocatalytic process. The photocatalytic process was carried out in a photocatalytic reactor in the presence of TiO2 nanoparticles. TiO2 nanoparticles were successfully prepared in a laboratory scale using sol-gel method with titanium-isopropoxide (TTIP) as titanium precursor. Prepared material was found very effective to the removal of CIP antibiotic. The maximum removal efficiency of 87.95% of ciprofloxacin from aqueous solution was achieved at the pH 5, catalyst doze of 40 mg L−1 with initial concentration of ciprofloxacin 5 mg L−1, and the reaction time of 100 min additionally; material characterization of TiO2 was presented in detail in terms of XRD, SEM, UV, and FTIR. It has been found that at the optimum condition the total operating cost indicated for the removal of ciprofloxacin from aqueous solution is 786.56 (INR/kg of CIP removal). This technique demonstrated that photocatalytic reaction in presence of TiO2 nanoparticles is well applicable to treat pharmaceutical wastewater.
