Abstract:
:Photocatalytic degradation of phenol on different phases of TiO(2) particles was examined under 400-W UV irradiation. The effects of various operating parameters including TiO(2) dosage, solution pH (4-10), and initial phenol concentration (0.13-1.05 mM) on phenol degradation were investigated. Three forms of TiO(2) photocatalysts such as pure anatase phase, pure rutile phase, and the mixed phase were prepared by sol-gel method and followed annealing at different temperatures. The annealing temperature used were 500 °C, 700 °C and 900 °C for pure anatase phase, the mixed phase, and pure rutile phase, respectively. It was shown that pure anatase TiO(2) exhibited higher photocatalytic activity than the physical mixture of pure anatase and rutile TiO(2). Moreover, the TiO(2) particle with a specific fraction of mixed anatase and rutile phases exhibited better performance than pure anatase TiO(2). Finally, the degradation rate could be satisfactorily fitted by a pseudo-first-order kinetic model.
