        The influence of the number of operating parameters on photocatalytic and sonocatalytic Acid Red 88 degradation from an aqueous solution was investigated in this paper. The experimental results indicated that the sonocatalytic process with Ni-TiO2 was far more effective for the degradation of high concentration azo dyes, regardless of the process condition. In order to achieve a larger surface area of the catalyst, Ni-TiO2 was suspended in the aqueous solution. The optimum experimental conditions obtained as catalyst dosage of 0.6mg L-1, pH of 7 and dye concentration of 30 mg L-1. The COD value of the solution after photodegradation showed a significant decrease to 59 mg L-1 from 1573 mg L-1 while this value decreased to 34 mg L-1 after sonocatalytic degradation. The catalyst performance was evaluated by SEM and XRD techniques. Dye removal efficiency of 88% was obtained by sonocatalysis process with a dye concentration of 300 mg L-1 and within a pH range of 2-11. However, the efficiency was only 28% after photocatalytic degradation with the same dye concentration and within a more limited pH range of 3-9. Therefore, a specific method was proposed in this article for azo dye degradation. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this research, dye – sensitization method was used to improve the photocatalytic activity of titanium dioxide dye using natural pigment of anthocyanin. Product morphology were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and phase identification using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Spectroscopic analysis of the matter was performed using FT-IR spectrometer and UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Analysis of DRS was used to study the optical properties of the samples. The results of XRD and SEM showed that the surface modification of titanium dioxide with pigments has no effect on the crystalline phase and morphology of particle. Analysis of DRS showed that dye – sensitization caused reduction in energy gap and can shift the absorption edge of TiO2 to the visible region. The photocatalytic activity of the modified TiO2 was studied by measuring the degradation percent of methylene blue under visible light irradiation and the effect of various parameters on the amount of degradation of methylene blue too. تفاصيل المقالة

        White rice husk ash (RHA), an agriculture waste, was used as a silica source for MTW zeolite synthesis. The RHA-MTW zeolite derived from RHA was prepared by hydrothermal method at 150 °C in the presence of tetraethylammonium hydroxide. ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) were grown in zeolite substrates using a solid state reaction. The synthesized nanocomposite (NC) was characterized by XRD, SEM, DRS and TEM and tested as photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye from aqueous solution under ultraviolet (UV) light. The BET results indicated that pore volume and surface area of ZnO/RHA-MTW NC was smaller than RHA-MTW zeolite. On the basis of the obtained experimental results, it was founded that zinc oxide NPs were encapsulated into channels of RHA-MTW zeolite. The SEM and TEM images of ZnO/RHA-MTW NC confirmed the formation of RHA-MTW particles with size diameter of 2.5 µm and locating of zinc oxide NPs in channels of zeolite with an average size of between 35 nm. The results showed MB degradation reached 85 % under UV light. The MB indicated maximum adsorption at pH=9. The photocatalytic activity of ZnO was enhanced in the presence of zeolite due to reduction of recombination rate of the electro-hole in ZnO semiconductor. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this work, the photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) degradation of 2,5-dichlorophenol can be used for its removal from aqueous solution. To study this activity, a TiO2 thin film modified titanium sheet (TiO2/Ti) was fabricated by anodizing Ti plates using a two electrode system under the constant bias voltage of 20 V for 20 min in a solution of 0.2% (v/v) HF followed by calcination at 500 oC for 2 h. Then, the electrochemical properties of 2,5-dichlorophenol were compared on the surface of the TiO2/Ti and unmodified Ti electrodes. Consequently, the TiO2/Ti was applied for PEC degradation of 2,5-dichlorophenol. It was found that 2,5-dichlorophenol could be degraded more efficiently by this photoelectrocatalysis process than the sum of degradation obtained by photocatalytic (PC) and electrochemical (EC) oxidation so that the amount of 2,5-dichlorophenol degraded by PEC, PC and EC oxidation were equal to 51%, 39% and 5% respectively under the 0.4 V voltage in 60 min. The effect of various parameters was studied and the highest degradation percentage of 2,5-dichlorophenol was obtained at pH 6.0, the initial 2,5-dichlorophenol concentration of 7.0 mg L-1 and applied potential of 1.2 V. تفاصيل المقالة

        Titania nanotubes (TNT) prepared by anodization of Ti foils were used for water splitting in a standalone cell. The concentration polarization between the anode side (1M NaOH) and cathode side (0.5 M H2SO4) ensured that the water splitting reaction could take place with no external bias and separate H2 and O2 evolution could be achieved. The destruction of TNT structures under 365 nm UV irradiation as well as the absence of the stoichiometry between the anodic and cathodic gas collectors indicates the limits of the stability of TNT structures under these conditions. تفاصيل المقالة

Photocatalytic properties of the nitrogen doped TiO2 nanocatalyst and pure TiO2 were compared for degradation of Blue 5 dye in visible light irradiation and the DRS results showed that the band gap of doped photocatalyst was smaller than that of the undoped TiO2 and there was a shift in the absorption band toward the visible light region. The Photocatalytic properties of the nitrogen doped TiO2 nanocatalyst wereemployed for degradation of crystal Blue 5 dye under visible light irradiation. The effects of pH, amount of photocatalysts,catalyst dosage, and dye concentration were also examined. The best results were reported for the concentration of 20 mg/L N-TiO2 nano-particles. Also results showed that the photodecomposition of N-TiO2 is complete at pH 11. Total organic carbon (TOC) analysis indicated 30 % mineralization of Blue 5 after 75 min irradiation. تفاصيل المقالة

        Porous ZnO-hydroxyapatite nanocomposite was prepared by dissolution of a rock phosphate ore in an acidic medium followed by alkaline precipitation. Its photocatalytic activity was assessed for the degradation of paracetamol as one of the most commonly prescribed pharmaceutical drugs and methylene blue as dye model. Thanks to its good porosity, the 40ZnHAp nanocomposite adsorbed the selected pollutants better than the individual ZnO and HAp phases. 40ZnHAp calcined at 500° completely degrades the studied pollutants faster than ZnO, although a longer illumination time is required for the degradation of paracetamol. The low-cost 40ZnHAp nanomaterial can be considered as a potential photocatalyst for wastewater treatment due to its high porosity, which facilitates the entrapment of initial pollutants and/or by-products. It leads to a complete mineralization, consequently yielding healthy discharged water. تفاصيل المقالة

        ZnO nano particles and Cu modified ZnO nano composites have been prepared by simple, facile hydrothermal approach. The novelty of this work was the use of aqueous methanolic solution (50:50 ratio) as the solvent of reaction, while zinc chloride was used as the precursor of ZnO NPs and Cu- modified ZnO nano composites. XRD results revealed that the synthesized ZnO and Cu-modified ZnO nano composites were of nano size and XRD patterns matched with JCPDS Card 35-1451, confirming the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles. The FT-IR results confirmed the synthesis of target materials and also the adsorption of Cu metal on ZnO surface. The UV visible spectroscopic analysis indicated that the optical properties improved as the concentration of Cu metal increased on ZnO surface. SEM analysis explored the spherical shape of synthesized nano composites. The EDX graph showed the elemental composition of prepared materials that composed of Zn, O and Cu and no other impurity was found. The Tartrazine Yellow Azo Dye was degraded to investigate the photo catalytic activity which was optimized under sunlight with increasing the Cu metal concentration on surface of ZnO. تفاصيل المقالة

        Single-atom catalysts have recently received much scientific attraction as sustainable catalysts due to their greater activity and selectivity arising from the uniform distribution, electronic properties, and quantum mechanical interactions at the nanoscale of single atoms coupled with interactions at the metal-support interfaces. Carbon-based materials are an excellent support material for single-atom catalysts owing to their inherent properties such as adjustable pore size, high surface area to volume ratio, and ease of surface functionalization. The interactions at the single atom-carbon support interfaces give rise to the extraordinary catalytic activity in carbon-based single metal catalysts thus opening doors for a wide range of sustainable applications. This review focuses on the evolution of carbon-based single-atom catalysis covering different types of carbon substrates, usage of different single atoms with special attention to transition metals, and its wide range of applications including photocatalysis, organic catalysis, and electrocatalysis followed by the future perspectives on carbon-based single-atom catalysts. تفاصيل المقالة

        This study investigates the effect of a combination of copper and magnesium oxide nanoparticles embedded in a Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) matrix on photocatalytic activity. A thin film of CuO/MgO/PVC nanocomposites (NCs) was synthesized using the sol-gel route. Different weight percentages of CuO/MgO nanocomposites (5% and 15%) incorporated in the PVC matrix were deposited on glass strips using the spin coating method. The characterization of these thin films were carried out by a series of analytical and spectroscopic tools including PXRD, AFM, UV-Vis, and FTIR spectra analysis. The bandgap energy of MgO/PVC significantly reduced from 4.00 eV to 3.77 eV in 15% CuO/MgO/PVC NCs. This study also demonstrates the high ability of CuO/MgO/PVC thin films towards the photodegradation of methylene blue (MB) dye with a proposed reaction mechanism. A comparative analysis for the photodegradation of MB dye revealed superior photocatalysis by 15%with a rate constant of 5.20 × 10-3 min-1 showing about 44% efficiency. The credit goes to the decrease in the band gap, enhancement in charge separation, and increase in surface area of thin film CuO/MgO/PVC NCs. تفاصيل المقالة

        An anionic, cationic, and non-ionic surfactant-assisted wet chemical method was used to synthesize vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) nanocrystals. XRD, FESEM, EDX, FTIR, UV-Vis, and PL techniques were used to characterize the V2O5 nanocrystals. The formation of V2O5 nanocrystals is confirmed by the experimental results. The addition of surfactants had a significant effect on the morphology, crystallinity, and optoelectronic characteristics of the prepared photocatalysts, as per the detailed characterization and analysis of the pertaining light-matter interactions. Additionally, the Scherrer and William-Hall plot methods were used to determine the crystallite sizes from the broadening of the XRD peak. Surfactant addition caused the sample bandgap to broaden, resulting in the blue shift in the distinctive absorption peak of V2O5 nanocrystals. To effectively separate the charge carriers during photocatalysis, the most effective photocatalyst (pure V2O5) material showed small crystallite size and short migration routes for the charge carriers which is confirmed by XRD and PL analysis. Pure V2O5 nanocrystals showed excellent yields in the photocatalytic degradation of Methylene Blue (MB) dye when exposed to sunlight compared to surfactant-assisted V2O5. The V2O5 catalyst’s photostability and reusability were also assessed; after four cycles of testing, the percentage degradation of MB was 94.75%. As per the scavenger experiment, photo-generated holes (h+) and superoxide radical’s anions (O2—‾.) are the major species responsible for the degradation of MB dye. There is a suggested mechanism for the higher degradation efficiency of V2O5 at neutral pH when exposed to sunlight. Pure V2O5 is a promising and effective photo-catalyst for the photocatalytic degradation of MB dye due to its extremely high performance. تفاصيل المقالة

        The conducting polymer films have been widely applied in the field of electrochemistry owing to their goodstability, permselectivity, unique physical and chemical properties. A novel nano-Au/poly (4-aminobenzoicacid) (PABA) film modified carbon paste electrode was fabricated for sensitive detection of acetaminophenin this paper. The PABA film and nano-Au/PABA film were characterized by scanning electron microscope.The nano-Au/PABA film exhibited obviously catalytic performance to the determination of acetaminophenwith a high sensitivity and a wide linear range. Under optimum conditions (pH, the concentration of 4-aminobenzoic acid, electro-polymerization cycles), linearity between the oxidation peak current and theacetaminophen concentration was obtained in the range of 1.0 × 10–7 – 8.0 × 10–5 mol L-1 with a detectionlimit of 8.0 × 10–8 mol L-1 (S/N = 3). In addition, the nano-Au/PABA film modified electrode wassuccessfully employed to determine the acetaminophen in commercial drugs, and this work has shed somedoubt on the redox mechanism of acetaminophen at the sensor. تفاصيل المقالة
