Nanosized WO3-doped TiO2 photocatalysts were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method, and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and BET surface area analyzer. The photocatalytic activity of undoped TiO2 and WO3 doped TiO2 photocatalysts was evaluated by the photocatalytic oxidation degradation of methyl orange in aqueous solution. The results show that the photocatalytic activity of the WO3 doped TiO2 photocatalyst is much higher than that of undoped TiO2.

TiO2/La2Zr2O7 composites were fabricated by sol-gel method. The composites were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Raman spectrum, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) nitrogen adsorption. The results showed that TiO2 was uniformly coated on the surface of La2Zr2O7 powders. The BET surface area of TiO2/La2Zr2O7 composites was 26.78 m2/g, which was larger than that of La2Zr2O7. Also, the photodegradation of methyl orange was used to evaluate its photocatalytic property. It was found that TiO2/La2Zr2O7 composites showed good photocatalytic activity and the decomposition of methyl orange had basically completed within 30 min.

The composites of expanded graphite with TiO2(EG/TiO2) were prepared in the method of impregnation, the morphology and crystal structure were characterized by the means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The decolorization performance of the EG/TiO2composites for the methyl orange aqueous solution were studied. The experimental results were shown as follows: the EG/TiO2composites maintained the porous and lamellar structure of EG, and a lot of anatase TiO2particles as a small lumpdistributed on surfaces and in layers of EG. The composites may contain the graphite both oxidized and un-oxidized, and there was no other organic group left in the composites, except for the functional groups of graphite. Moreover, the EG/TiO2composites had excellent decolorization performance for the methyl orange aqueous solution. When reacted for 90 min, the decolorization rate of the methyl orange aqueous solution was at the peak, up to 96.1%. We supposed that it was mainly due to the interaction between the strong adsorptive ability of EG and the degradation property of TiO2particles.

In this work, a SiO2-TiO2 coating, composed of different numbers of TiO2 and SiO2 layers, was fabricated by a spray-coating technique. The films were deposited onto ignimbrite rock and divided into two groups according to the number of SiO2 layers applied, 10 and 15 layers of SiO2 and 5 layers of TiO2 for each group. The morphology and chemical composition of the synthesized samples were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS), which reveal the successful SiO2-TiO2 coating on ignimbrite. The photocatalytic activities of samples obtained were evaluated toward the decomposition of 3 ppm of methyl orange (MO). Finally, NOx gas degradation was studied. The obtained results evidenced that the SiO2 and TiO2 coating improved the photocatalytic activity of ignimbrite.

Solid waste red mud was modified by HCl leaching. The structure property and composition of modified red mud were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET). Under UV irradiation, methyl orange (MO) aqueous solution was photodegraded by modified red mud. The obtained results showed that the specific surface area of modified red mud was 317.14 m2/g, which was about 40 times higher than that of the normal red mud. After UV irradiation for 50 min, the removal percentage of MO reached 94.2%. The study provided a novel way for the application of red mud to the photocatalytic degradation of organic wastes.

Ordered titanate nanoribbon (TNR)/SnO2films were fabricated by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) process using hydrothermally prepared titanate nanoribbon as a precursor. The formation mechanism of ordered TNR film on the fluorine-doped SnO2coated (FTO) glass was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effects of calcination temperatures on the phase structure and photocatalytic activity of ordered TNR/SnO2films were investigated and discussed. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicate that the phase transformation of titanate to anatase occurs at 400°C and with increasing calcination temperature, the crystallization of anatase increases. At 600°C, the nanoribbon morphology still hold and the TiO2/SnO2film exhibits the highest photocatalytic activity due to the good crystallization, unique morphology, and efficient photogenerated charge carriers separation and transfer at the interface of TiO2and SnO2.

Monodispersed ZrO2 (includes 8mol % Y2O3) precursor nanoparticles, which were well dispersed in aqueous solution, were successfully synthesized. The as-synthesized ZrO2 precursor nanoparticles were homogenously coated on the surface of polystyrene particles. Multilayer coating process was successfully implemented by using polyacrylic acid (PAA) to modify the surface charges of the coated particles, which was characterized by zeta-potential, particles size distribution and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Hollow anatase titania spheres have been synthesized using hydrothermally–prepared carbon spheres as the template. Here, the combination of hydrothermal process with sol–gel followed by calcination in air was done in order to obtain hollow anatase TiO2 spheres by utilizing fructose and tetrabutyl titanate (TBT) as the precursors. The structure and morphology of the products were characterized using various techniques, including Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG–DTA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). XRD showed that all peaks of TiO2 correspond to anatase crystalline phase. The BET surface area of the hollow spheres was about 22 m2g-1. The photocatalytic activity of the hollow anatase TiO2 was measured under UV light using γ-lindane as the target pollutant and was compared to commercially available TiO2.

In this work, we report that ZnTiO3/TiO2 composites, which were synthesized by hydrothermal method possessed photocatalytic and potential spraying properties. The obtained ZnTiO3/TiO2 composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction techniques (XRD). Photocatalytic activities of ZnTiO3/TiO2 composites were evaluated by using Rhodamine B (RhB) as a model pollutant under visible light irradiation. The experimental results showed that the as-prepared ZnTiO3 (2%)/TiO2 composite exhibited better photocatalytic activity than that of pure TiO2.
