Photocatalytic Activity of TiO2 Coated on HZSM-5 Prepared by Oxalic Acid Treatment

Article Preview

Abstract:

Zeolite HZSM-5 was pre-treated by oxalic acid and used as support for TiO2 film prepared by sol-gel method. Decoloration rates increased with TiO2 concentration both for pure TiO2 and TiO2/HZSM-5. Meanwhile, the total decoloration rate on TiO2/HZSM-5 is much higher than using pure TiO2 on all TiO2 concentrations. Methyl orange degradation on TiO2/HZSM-5 reached its maximum value at TiO2 concentration of 600 mg/l. After 120 min of irradiation, decoloration rate on TiO2/HZSM-5 was near 100%, compared with 50% decoloration on pure TiO2. Photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange on both TiO2/HZSM-5 and TiO2 follows the equation of first order reaction. Kinetic constant on TiO2/HZSM-5 is k1=0.02663 min-1, which is much higher than that on pure TiO2, k2=0.010154 min-1.
