AbstractThe emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx) increases year by year, causing serious problems to our livelihoods. The photocatalytic oxidation of NOx has attracted more attention recently because of its efficient removal of NOx, especially for low concentrations of NOx. In this review, the mechanism of the photocatalytic oxidation of NOx is described. Then, the recent progress on the development of photocatalysts is reviewed according to the categories of inorganic semiconductors, bismuth-based compounds, nitrogen carbide polymer, and metal organic frameworks (MOFs). In addition, the photoelectrocatalytic oxidation of NOx, a method involving the application of an external voltage on the photocatalytic system to further increase the removal efficiency of NOx, and its progress are summarized. Finally, we outline the remaining challenges and provide our perspectives on the future directions for the photocatalytic oxidation of NOx.

Field enhancement and location of plasmonic resonance peaks are strongly correlated with the size of Bi particles. The low energy barrier for the conversion of NO to NO2 and low NO2 desorption energy over Bi particles indicate that Bi films are very active for photocatalytic oxidation of NO and possess good stability.

The influence of negatively polar plasma of crown discharge on the rate of photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) of vapors of acetone and benzene was investigated by studying dynamics of changes in the composition of gas-air mixture in a 404 L reactor using in-situ IR spectroscopy. Titanium (Hombifine N) was used as the photocatalyst; it was lighted with a UV-lamp at the wavelength λ = 365 nm. The rate of the photocatalytic oxidation of the substrate vapor was compared to the oxidation rate in crown discharge plasma, to the rate of dark oxidation with ozone (side product of the discharge burning), to the rate of photocatalytic oxidation in the presence of ozone, as well as to the rate of the photocatalytic oxidation under medium treatment with the crown discharge plasma. The rate of oxidation of various substrates was shown to be much lower in individual plasma and in ozone-containing atmosphere than in photocatalytic oxidation but application of the crown discharge led to an increase in the rate of photocatalytic oxidation and in the rate of oxidation in ozone-containing atmosphere. Under the action of the discharge, ozone was not accumulated in considerable proportion in the gas mixture but after consumption of 80–90 % of the oxidized substrate. The order of acetone PCO with respect to ozone was determined. It was shown that the action of plasma allowed benzene PCO to be noticeably accelerated due to considerable depression of the photocatalyst deactivation compared to that during individual PCO of benzene.
