Progress of TiO₂ Photocatalytic Oxidation Technology in Algae Removal

Abstract:

In this paper, the development in the degradation of microcystic toxins and algae removal by TiO₂ photocatalysts is reviewed, analyzing the prospect and pinpointing the key factor of the technology. TiO₂, which is insoluble, nontoxic, inexpensive and catalyst-efficient, shows good chemical inertness. For the degradation of microcystic toxins and algae removal, TiO2 photocatalysts is superior to the traditional processing technology and method, contributing a lot to environmental protection.
