Doped Titania

Bismuth-doped TiO2submicrospheres were synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. The prepared bismuth-doped titania was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-vis DRS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Aqueous photocatalytic activity was evaluated by the decomposition of methyl orange under visible-light irradiation. The results indicate that doping of bismuth remarkably affects the phase composition, crystal structure, and the photocatalytic activity. The sample with 2% Bi exhibits the optimum photocatalytic activity.

Study Results

The Ga0.25Zn4.67S5.08 catalysts were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis with thiourea as a precursor. The crystal structure, optical properties, specific surface area, chemical composition, surface morphology, and internal structure of the prepared samples were characterized by XRD, UV-Vis DRS, BET, XPS, SEM, and TEM, respectively. The disinfection performance and the main active species of the synthesized catalysts under visible light irradiation were investigated with E. coli K12. The study results indicate that Ga0.25Zn4.67S5.08 prepared at 400°C exhibited the best antibacterial performance with complete kill of E. coli K12 within 4 h. The antibacterial performance of the prepared sample is also higher than that prepared by the hydrothermal method. The result of the radical trapping experiment indicates that the photogenerated holes play a dominant role in the disinfection process.

Ultrasonic Spray

The fluorine- and nitrogen-codoped TiO2was synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method with titanium tetrafluoride and urea as precursor. The codoped TiO2was characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Nitric oxide (NO) photocatalytic oxidation in gas-phase medium was employed as a probe reaction to evaluate the photocatalytic reactivity of the catalysts. The results indicated that spherical codoped TiO2photocatalysts with unique puckered surface were obtained by this method. The codoped catalysts have solely anatase crystalline structure. The optical characterization of the codoped catalysts showed that the codoped samples could be excited by visible light photons in the 400–550 nm and could efficiently oxidize NO under visible light irradiation. The mechanism of special morphology formation of prepared codoped TiO2structure is also discussed.
