The TiO2/Sr4Al14O25:Eu2+,Dy3+ photocatalytic composite was prepared by depositing the nano-crystalline titanium dioxide layer on the long-lasting phosphor substrate of strontium aluminate, using a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LP-CVD). The photocatalysis characteristic was studied by examining the photodegradation of benzene (C6H6) gas under UV, visible light illumination, and in the darkness. The photocatalytic composite of TiO2-deposited Sr4Al14O25:Eu2+,Dy3+ showed an active photocatalytic reactivity under UV-light as well as visible-light illumination. The mechanism of the photocatalysis reaction for the TiO2-deposited strontium aluminate phosphor composite was interpreted in point of the energy band structure and phosphorescent emission. The coupling of nanocrystalline TiO2 with the strontium aluminate phosphor might result in an energy band bending at the interface of TiO2/Sr4Al14O25:Eu2+,Dy3+, making the titanium dioxide at the junction to be photo-reactive even in a visible wavelength region. In addition, the depth profile of Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) confirmed a possible formation of oxygen vacancies at the interface between TiO2 and Sr4Al14O25:Eu2+,Dy3+. Then, oxygen defects create extra electrons which may excited subsequently to the conduction band and participate in a photocatalytic reaction, resulting in an enhancement of the photodecomposition of benzene. The LP-CVD TiO2-strontium aluminate phosphor was also photoactive in the darkness because of light emission from the long lasting phosphor. Also, the TiO2-deposited Sr4Al14O25:Eu2+,Dy3+ long lasting phosphor was analyzed by a XRD (X-ray diffraction), TEM (transmission electron microscopy), UV/visible spectroscopy and AES.

Two processes applying green solvents for recovering rare earth elements (REEs) from different types of aluminate phosphors are demonstrated in this report. For magnesium aluminate-type phosphors, a pretreatment with peroxide calcination was implemented first, and then followed by a supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) process. Supercritical carbon dioxide (sc-CO2) provides an effective and green medium for extracting REEs from dry materials. With the addition of a complex agent, tri-n-butyl phosphate-nitric acid complex, highly efficient and selective extraction of REEs using supercritical carbon dioxide can be achieved. The highest extraction efficiency was 92% for europium from the europium doped barium magnesium aluminate phosphor (BAM), whereas the highest extraction selectivity was more than 99% for the REEs combined from the trichromatic phosphor. On the other hand, for strontium aluminate type phosphors, a direct acid leaching process is suggested. It was found out that acetic acid, which is considerably green, could have high recovery rate for dysprosium (>99%) and europium (~83%) from this strontium aluminate phosphor materials. Nevertheless, both green processes showed promising results and could have high potential for industrial applications.
