Sustainable Energy
In the domain of solar science, a pyranometer assumes a pivotal position, functioning as an indispensable tool for appraising solar irradiance across the abbreviated wavelengths of the solar spectrum, spanning from 300 to 3000 nanometers. Conventional pyranometers typically employ intricate and...
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
TiO2 is the most effective photocatalyst but it has low adsorption in the visible region. Many efforts have been done to improve its photocatalytic activity in the solar region. In this study we use Mo-oxy species supported on titania surface since it is well known that titania surface can dispersed...
Air pollution and health
In recent decades, there has been an increasing interest in the prognosis of maximum surface ozone concentrations due to the adverse effects on human health, animal population, agricultural productivity and forestry. The present study deals with the development and application of Artificial Neural...
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
Recently, considerable efforts have been devoted to overcome a major limitation in semiconductor photocatalysis, the recombination of photogenerated e --h + pairs which leads to reduced quantum yields. Considering the impacts of various parameters on the photocatalytic degradation efficiency, our...
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...
General
Environmental, economic and strategic reasons are behind the rapid impulse in the deployment of renewable energy sources that is taking place around the world. In addition to overcoming economic and commercial barriers, meeting the ambitious objectives set by most countries in this field will...
