    Abstract : Poor indoor air quality is a source of adverse health effects. TiO2 coatings deposited on well-illuminated surfaces, such as window panes, can be used to fully mineralize indoor air pollutants by photocatalysis. READ MORE

  6. 4. Sol-gel Synthesis and Photocatalytic Characterization of Immobilized TiO2 Films

    Author : Haidong Liao; Mats Jonsson; David Stenman; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Photocatalysis; Hydroxyl radical; TiO2 film; Sol-gel; Chemistry; Kemi; Catalysis; Katalys;

    Abstract :    Contamination of surface and ground water from industrial wastes and anthropogenic activities represents one of the greatest challenges to the sustainable development of human society. Heterogeneous photocatalysis, a kind of advanced oxidation process characterized by the production of highly oxidative hydroxyl radicals, is a relatively novel subject with tremendous potential in water treatment applications.
