Preparation of TiO2 Powder and the Study of Photocatalytic Activity

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the TiO2 powder was prepared and the photocatalytic activity was studied. The effects of photocatalytic degradation time, TiO2 powder dosage and the aging time were examined. The results of XRD analysis revealed that the TiO2 powders are anatase. The study indicates that TiO2 powder is a potential material for photocatalytic degradation of dye wastewater.
