The presence of diverse pollutants in water has been threating human health and aquatic
ecosystems on a global scale. For more than a century, chemical oxidation using strongly …

Since the last two decades, plenty of environmental issues have risen up due to the damage
which humans have caused to the planet for the sake of development. The continual …

Photocatalysis has been invariably considered as an unselective process (especially in
water) for a fairly long period of time, and the investigation on selective photocatalysis has …

The development and utilization of solar energy in environmental remediation and water
splitting is being intensively studied worldwide. During the past few decades, tremendous …

High efficiency solar photocatalysis requires an effective separation of photogenerated
charge carriers and their rapid transport to the semiconductor interface. The mechanisms …

Mechanically ball-mill prepared clinoptilolite nanoparticles (NC) were used for increasing
photocatalytic activity of NiO and ZnO as alone and binary systems. The semiconductors …

This paper reviews recent studies on the semiconductor photocatalysis based on surface-
modified TiO2 of which application is mainly focused on environmental remediation. TiO2 …

Photocatalytic water treatment using nanocrystalline titanium dioxide (NTO) is a well-known
advanced oxidation process (AOP) for environmental remediation. With the in situ …

Visible light harvesting or utilization through semiconductor photocatalysis is a key
technology for solar chemical conversion processes. Although titania nanoparticles are …

In order to achieve a selective removal of specific pesticides from water, we synthesized,
through the sol-gel technique, molecularly imprinted TiO 2 photocatalysts with the only use …
