Photocatalytic Degradation of Organic Contaminants

  • Chapter
Technologies for Environmental Cleanup: Toxic and Hazardous Waste Management

Part of the book series: Eurocourses: Environmental Management ((EUEM,volume 2))

Abstract

Heterogeneous photocatalysis of many organic compounds, in oxic aqueous suspensions of semiconductor particles (e.g., Ti02) leads in almost all cases to quantitative formation of carbon dioxide and, eventually, inorganic anions. The fundamentals of heterogeneous photocatalysis and the possible application in the treatment of both waste waters and drinking water are presented.
