Effect of Several Reagents on Photocatalytic Decolorization of Methyl Orange in Bi2O3 Suspension Systems

Article Preview

Abstract:

The photocatalytic activity of Bi2O3 photocatalyst towards decolorization of Methyl Orange (MO) was studied by employing several reagents. The influence of H2O2 on the decolorization efficiency was investigated in detail. Addition of ions such as CO32, Cl, and SO42- inhibits the photocatalytic efficiency.
