Photocatalytic Activity of Mixture of TiO2 and HZSM-5 Treated with NH4Cl

Article Preview

Abstract:

HZSM-5 was prepared from NaZSM-5 through treatment with NH4Cl. Adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange was investigated as the factors of HZSM-5 amount and reaction time. Adsorption of methyl orange on the mixtures varied slightly in the range from 1% to 10% when using zeolite in the concentration up to 800 mg/l. Adsorption contributed a small percent in the total decoloration of methyl orange. With increasing HZSM-5 concentration in the solution, total decoloration rate changed in a wide range. The maximum decoloration value was obtained in HZSM-5 concentration of 104 mg/l. After 70 min of irradiation, methyl orange decoloration on the mixture reached 99.5%.
