Luigi Rizzo et al. View all

Issue 3

Water and wastewater treatment and reuse

Solar simulated heterogeneous photocatalysis (SSHP) with suspended TiO 2 was investigated in the inactivation of tetracycline resistant/sensitive Enterococcus (TRE/TSE) strains in the effluent of an urban wastewater treatment plant (UWTP). The effect of solar simulated disinfection (SSD) on the...

Enhancement of photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanoparticles by silver doping: photodeposition versus liquid impregnation methods

by

Behnajady M.A., N. Modirshahla, M. Shokri and B. Rad

Issue 1

General

Silver doped TiO2 nanoparticles have been prepared by liquid impregnation (LI) and photodeposition (PD) methods and characterized by surface analytical methods such as scanning electron micrographs (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The photocatalytic activity of silver doped TiO2 was tested by...

Disinfection of municipal wastewater by TiO2 photocatalysis with UV-A, visible and solar irradiation and BDD electrolysis

by

Melemeni M., Stamatakis D., Xekoukoulotakis N.P., Mantzavinos D. and Kalogerakis N.

Issue 3

General

The efficiency of TiO2 photocatalysis induced by ultraviolet and visible irradiation and salt-free electrolysis over boron-doped diamond electrodes to inactivate total (TC) and fecal (FC) coliforms in secondary treated municipal wastewater was evaluated. Photocatalytic experiments were conducted...
