Literature ReviewOpen accessEvery word in the titleBasics of Photocatalysis and Different Strategy for Enhancing the Photocatalytic EfficiencyYuvaraj M. Hunge, Anuja A. Yadav, Babasaheb M. MohiteThis review reports on the basic mechanism of photocatalysis and different ways of enhancing the photocatalytic efficiency. It further examines enhancement of the photocatalytic property using the different combinations of semiconductor oxides (TiO2, ZnO, stratified WO3/TiO2, WO3/ZnO). TiO2, ZnO semiconductors have been widely used from the recent few decades in the photocatalytic degradation process, but the main drawback of these … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 21 May 2020 · 7,738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGreen Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles using Extract of Disporopsis Longifolia for Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene BlueKhieu Thi Tam, Dang Van Thanh, Huu Tap Van et al.In this report, the silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs)were successfully synthesized in a simple one-pot method by the leaf and stemextract of Disporopsis longifolia as reducing, capping agents, andstabilizers for the first time. The optimal extract amount, AgNO3concentration, reaction temperature, and time for the AgNPs synthesis wereidentified using Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD)and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 5 · 23 Nov 2022 · 6,563 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsConversion of Carbon Dioxide: Opportunities and Fundamental ChallengesSajeda A. Al-Saydeh, Syed J. Zaidi, Muftah H. El-NaasThe rising atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide is one of the most urgent challenges facing societies nowadays. There is also great potential in energy carriers and other materials from CO2, with many challenges to overcome. The way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions should be using carbon free sources that do not generate carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. This article reviews … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 17 Jan 2018 · 7,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSynthesis and Characterization of Au@TiO2 NWs and their Catalytic Activity by Water Splitting: A Comparative Study with Degussa P25Abniel Machín, María Cotto, José Ducongé et al.Different amount of gold nanoparticles (1, 3, 5, 10 wt%) were deposited on the surface of synthesized titanium oxide nanowires (TiO2 NWs) and Degussa P25 (TiO2-P25). The results evidenced the presence of small and dispersed gold particles on the surface of TiO2 NWs and TiO2-P25 and an increase in the specific surface area of all the composites. The photocatalytic activity … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2017 · 8,427 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLarge Scale Synthesis of ZnO Nanostructures of Different Morphologies through Solvent-free Mechanochemical Synthesis and their Application in Photocatalytic Dye DegradationRaúl Sánchez Zeferino, Jesús Alberto Ramos Ramón, Ma. Eunice de Anda Reyes et al.Well crystalline, near-stoichiometric zinc oxide nanostructures of different morphologies are fabricated in large scale, utilizing a simple, cost effective mechanochemical synthesis in absence of solvent. Effects of ionic and nonionic surfactants along with the concentration of hydrolyzing agent on the evolution of nanostructure morphology have been studied. It has been observed that while a cationic surfactant such as Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2016 · 8,932 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFacile Synthesis of AgCl Hollow Nanospheres for Enhanced Photocatalytic PropertiesJing Chen, Yuling Zhao, Xinhui Liu et al.AgCl hollow nanospheres have been synthesized successfully via a hard-template approach using silica nanospheres as hard template for the first time. The phase, size and morphology of the as-prepared AgCl were investigated by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM); which reveals that the cubic AgCl hollow nanospheres with a cell constant a = 5.549 Å are 220 nm … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 22 May 2015 · 7,350 accessesView PDFCite

Results: The reactor, made of glass slides (tubes) coated with a thin-film of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,054 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of Nanoparticles of Mixed Oxides Containing Titanium Cerium Silver and Silicon: Phase TransformationAkkarat Wongkaew, Waree Jansome, Supachai Khemchan et al.Problem statement: Titanium dioxide is a well known material using with self-cleaning application. This is due to its properties after exposed to UV light: Superhydrophilicity and photocatalysis. The addition of other oxides could prolong these properties without continuing exposed to UV. However, titanium dioxide phase is essential. In order to obtain these properties, titanium dioxide needs to be in anatase … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,824 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Removal of 4-Chlorophenol and Dichloroacetic Acid in Water Using Ti-, Zr- and Ti/Zr-Pillared Bentonites as PhotocatalystMohamed Houari, Mohamed Saidi, Djamel Tabet et al.Heterogeneous photocatalysis could be alternative remediation technology for water since it does not need the addition of any chemicals and it is suitable for treating low concentrations of pollutant. Although the TiO2 Degussa P 25 is most used photocatalyst its photonic efficiency still low and its recovery from water is considered as an awkward process. In this study the effect … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 7,518 accessesView PDFCite
