Beschreibung
Photocatalytic Oxidation Technology explores the use of titanium dioxide (TiO2) and light in environmental science, specifically for air purification and water treatment. It addresses the growing need for sustainable methods to combat pollution, focusing on how photocatalysis can break down volatile organic compounds (VOCs). One intriguing fact is that TiO2, when exposed to light, can transform harmful VOCs into less harmful substances like carbon dioxide and water.
The book investigates diverse applications, from air purification systems in buildings to water treatment facilities, offering a balanced perspective on their advantages and limitations. The book emphasizes the potential of TiO2 photocatalysis as a viable method for environmental remediation, particularly in pollution control.
It begins by introducing the fundamental principles of photocatalysis, including the electronic structure of TiO2 and VOC breakdown mechanisms. Progressing through reactor design, optimization strategies, and real-world case studies, the book connects materials science, chemical engineering, and environmental science.
The book uniquely combines detailed scientific explanations with practical guidance, making it a valuable resource for those interested in advanced environmental remediation technologies and green technology.
