Zinc oxide mediated sonophotocatalytic degradation of phenol in water
TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation of trace amounts of phenol pollutant in water in presence of Zinc oxide catalyst under Ultraviolet (UV), Ultrasonic (US) and combination of UV and US irradiation has been investigated and optimum parameters for the mineralization of the pollutant have been identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasound (US), Ultraviolet light (UV) and combination (US+UV) assisted semiconductor catalysed degradation of organic pollutants in water: oscillation in the concentration of hydrogen peroxide formed in situ.
TL;DR: Investigation on the ZnO mediated sono, photo and sonophoto catalytic degradation of phenol pollutant in water reveal that H2O2 formed in situ cannot be quantitatively correlated with the degradation of the pollutant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microwave/Persulphate assisted ZnO mediated photocatalysis (MW/PS/UV/ZnO) as an efficient advanced oxidation process for the removal of RhB dye pollutant from water
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of the combination process for the efficient decontamination of water from dye pollutants has been investigated, and it has been shown that simultaneous irradiation by MW and UV is more efficient and synergistic for the mineralization of the dye compared to the respective individual energy sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sunlight induced photocatalytic degradation of herbicide diquat in water in presence of ZnO
TL;DR: In this article, solar photocatalytic degradation of very small amounts of the pollutant herbicide diquat in water in the presence of ZnO catalyst is investigated and optimised.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solar Photocatalytic Removal of Chemical and Bacterial Pollutants from Water Using Pt/TiO2-Coated Ceramic Tiles
TL;DR: In this article, a simple technique for the preparation of platinum-deposited TiO2 catalysts and its immobilization on ordinary ceramic tiles was reported, which was found effective for the solar photocatalytic removal of chemical and bacterial pollutants from water.
