Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
This special topic volume presents 12 invited, peer-reviewed research reports and literature reviews on newly developed photocatalytic materials, surfaces, and reactions for environmental cleanup applications and for generating and storing hydrogen. Among the topics are the contribution of nanotechnology to removing water pollutants, making cement photocatalytic by adding titanium dioxide, the photocatalytic activity of titania doped with transition metal ions for degrading amaranth dye, photocatalytic degradation studies of J-acid under visible light and ultrasonic activation using dye sensitized titanium dioxide, treatment methods for remediating amines, and photocatalysts and photoreactors for treating industrial effluents.
