Expanded perlite (EP) modified titanium dioxide (TiO2) with different loading times were prepared by Sol-Gel method. Photocatalytic degradation kinetics of Rhodamine B (RhB) in polluted water by the materials (EP-nanoTiO2), as well as the effects of different loading times and the initial concentration of RhB on photocatalysis rate were examined. The catalytic activity of the regenerated photocatalyst was also tested. The results showed that photocatalyst modified three times with TiO2had the highest catalytic activity. Degradation ratio of RhB by EP-nanoTiO2(modified three times) under irradiation for 6 h were 98.0%, 75.6% and 63.2% for 10 mg/L, 20 mg/L and 30 mg/L, respectively.The photocatalyst activity has little change after the five times recycling, and the degradation rate of RhB decreased less than 8%. The reaction of photocatalysis for RhB with irradiation time can be expressed as first-order kinetic mode within the initial concentration range of RhB between 10mg/L and 30 mg/L. EP-nanoTiO2photocatalyst has a higher activity and stability to degrade RhB in aqueous solution.

Decolorization Efficiency

Supported Fe-doped TiO2 has been prepared by a sol-gel method through the use of porous diatomite. The synthesized Fe-doped TiO2/diatomite composites were characterized by SEM and EDX techniques. The composite presented in this study showed higher adsorption and photodegradation ability of Rhodamine B than TiO2/diatomite and diatomite. It was found that the decolorization efficiency were dependent on the operational parameters of pH, photocatalyst dosage and dye concentration, and about 85% of the initial 50 mg/L dye could be adsorbed and degraded in 240 min. Moreover, kinetic study indicated that the photocatalytic degradation process could be described by the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model.

TiO2/fine char (FC) photocatalyst was prepared via sol-gel method with tetrabutyl titanate as the precursor and FC as the carrier. The structural property of TiO2/FC photocatalyst was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the photocatalytic activity of TiO2/FC was evaluated by photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) aqueous solution under UV light irradiation. The results showed that TiO2was successfully coated on the surface of FC, and the TiO2/FC photocatalyst had better photocatalytic efficiency and stability for degradation of RhB under UV light illumination as compared to that of the pure TiO2and FC. The study provided a novel way for the application of FC to the photocatalytic degradation of organic wastes.

In the present paper, photocatalytic degradation of paraquat using N-TiO2/SiO2 with different molar ratio of titanium: nitrogen (Ti:N) under visible light was investigated. The catalyst was prepared via immersed SiO2 in N-TiO2. N-TiO2 was synthesized by sol-gel method.  The N-TiO2/SiO2 catalyst was characterized using X-ray diffraction, UV diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The results from characterizations indicated that N-doped anatase TiO2 had a 20-25 nm size. Degradation of paraquat, at an initial concentration of 10 mg/L was determined by UV-Vis. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) was used for process performance. Based on the COD tests, the COD values in residual paraquat was lower than that in initial paraquat concentration after 8 hours illumination of visible light. Moreover, the experiment’s results indicated that 80% of paraquat was degraded within 8 h of illumination time. These results showed that N-TiO2/SiO2 with molar Ti:N=2:1 gives the highest degradation efficiency of paraquat under visible light. This catalyst was stable and reusable suggesting it can be applied to treat organic pollutant in water.

Carbon and iron co-doped titanium dioxide catalyst coated on activated carbon (Fe-C-TiO2/AC) was successfully synthesized using the sol-gel method, followed by hydrothermal treatment. Commercial activated carbon was treated by HNO3 prior to being coated by the as-synthesized catalyst. The composite was characterized by XPS, XRD, UV-Vis spectrophotometry, IR, TEM, HR-TEM, and BET. The performance of the supported catalysts was evaluated in the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) in the solution under visible-light irradiation. The results showed that, with the appropriate amount of activated carbon, prepared Fe-C-TiO2/AC catalysts exhibited higher catalytic activities and Fe-C-TiO2/AC system showed the best performance. The photocatalytic degradation efficiency of Fe-C-TiO2/AC was enhanced due to the synergistic effect between AC (adsorption effect) and Fe-C-TiO2 (photocatalysis effect). This facilitated the photocatalytic degradation of RhB by Fe-C-TiO2.
