Reduce Energy Consumption

In order to expand photoresponse range of TiO2, reduce energy consumption of semiconductor material optical catalytic, certain amount of rare earth element Erbiun was doped during preparation of anatase titanium dioxide to improve the light absorption and photocatalysis efficiency. A series of rare earth element doped TiO2 material were prepared by sol-gel process, and characterized by means of UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra. UV-vis absorption verified that doping of Er3+ enhanced absorptive capacity of catalyst in visible region. The photocatalytic performance of anatase titanium dioxide and rare earth element Erbiun doped with TiO2 to basic fuchsin were studied.

Low Toxicity

Further applications of photocatalysis were limited by the high recombination probability of photo-induced electron–hole pairs in traditional titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO 2 NPs). Herein, we modified them with rare earth metal via a facile sol–gel method, using tetrabutyl titanate as a precursor and terbium (III) nitrate hexahydrate as terbium (Tb) source. The resulting samples with different Tb doping amounts (from 0 to 2%) have been characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy and a scanning electron microscope. The photocatalytic performance of Tb-doped TiO 2 was evaluated by the degradation of methylene blue. The effects of Tb doping amount and initial pH value of solution were investigated in detail. The composite with Tb doping amount of 1.0 wt% showed the highest photocatalytic performance. It exhibited approximately three times enhancement in photocatalytic activity with a reaction rate constant of 0.2314 h −1 when compared with that of commercial P25 (0.0827 h −1 ). In addition, it presented low toxicity on zebrafishes with 96 h-LC 50 of 23.2 mg l −1 , and has been proved to be reusable for at least four cycles without significant loss of photocatalytic activity. A probable photocatalytic mechanism of Tb-doped TiO 2 was proposed according to the active species trapping experiments. The high photocatalytic performance, excellent reusability and low toxicity of Tb-doped TiO 2 indicated that it is a promising candidate material in the future treatment of dye wastewater.
