25. Influencia de los tratamientos térmicos en recubrimientos anódicos nanotubulares de TiO2
ABSTRACT TiO2 is a semiconductor widely used in heterogeneous photocatalysis processes for water decontamination. Several studies indicate that ordered nanostructures in anatase phase improve the photocatalytic properties with respect to other morphologies and crystal structures of TiO2. The aim of the present work is to evaluate the influence of different t

27. A POLIANILINA NO CENÁRIO AMBIENTAL: UMA ABORGAGEM SOBRE FOTOCATÁLISE HETEROGÊNEA
Polyaniline is a conducting polymer that has recently been studied regarding its potential in the removal of contaminants by heterogeneous photocatalysis. Since it is a polymer with a high absorption capacity of photons in the visible region, it promotes the photosensitization of catalysts that are typically inactive in solar systems. The increasing number o

29. Suspended and Immobilized TiO2 Photocatalytic Degradation of Estrogens: Potential for Application in Wastewater Treatment Processes
This work evaluated the photocatalytic activity of suspended TiO2, and TiO2-coated glass Raschig rings with respect to degradation of estrogens estrone (E1), 17β-estradiol (E2), and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) in aqueous solutions and wastewater effluent samples. Gas chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) studies were carried out to identify deg

30. PONTOS QUÂNTICOS AMBIENTALMENTE AMIGÁVEIS: DESTAQUE PARA O ÓXIDO DE ZINCO
Semiconductor nanocrystals with sizes in the quantum confinement regime (2-10 nm) present special physical and chemical properties. Additionally, environment-friendly quantum dots (QDs), as zinc oxide and zinc sulfide, offer many practical usages. Herein the ZnO semiconductor nanocrystals properties will be preferentially explored, such as its luminescence,

31. AgAu Nanotubes: Investigating the Effect of Surface Morphologies and Optical Properties over Applications in Catalysis and Photocatalysis
We herein report the preparation of AgAu nanotubes displaying controlled surface morphologies and optical properties by varying the reaction temperature during the galvanic reaction between Ag nanowires and AuCl4-(aq). As the AgAu nanotubes presented similar sizes and compositions, they enabled us to isolate the influence of surface morphology and optical pr

33. Effect of Fe3+ Doping in the Photocatalytic Properties of BaSnO3 Perovskite
In the last ten years, stannates with perovskite structure have been tested as photocatalysts. In spite of the ability of perovskite materials to accommodate different cations in its structure, evaluation of doped stannates is not a common task in the photocatalysis area. In this work, Fe3+ doped BaSnO3 was synthesized by the modified Pechini method, with ca

34. Heterogeneous photo-Fenton and photocatalytic degradation studies of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol (2Cl4NP) using foundry sand and TiO2 coated cement/clay beads
ABSTRACT Cement and clay beads coated with TiO2were used for the photo-degradation and mineralization of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol (2Cl4NP) along with a heterogeneous solar photo-Fenton process using foundry sand (FS) as the iron source. The degradation process was optimized using slurry photocatalysis where 96% degradation of 2Cl4NP was achieved in 120 min at

35. ESTRATÉGIAS E MATERIAIS UTILIZADOS EM FOTOCATÁLISE HETEROGÊNEA PARA GERAÇÃO DE HIDROGÊNIO ATRAVÉS DA FOTÓLISE DA ÁGUA
Among the various technologies for the production of hydrogen fuel, heterogeneous photocatalysis is one of the most promising, especially with the use of semiconductors, notably TiO2. However, the use of TiO2 is limited by hindrances for the photolysis of water, such as wide bandgap, a less negative conduction band reduction potential as compared to that of

36. COMPETITION BETWEEN THE REACTION MEDIUM AND NANOSTRUCTURED ZnO IN THE PHOTOCATALYTIC DEGRADATION OF ANTHRACENE. TOWARD AN OPTIMAL PROCESS FOR POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS REMEDIATION
Contamination with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is considered an important health issue due to the toxicity of these compounds. Photocatalytic degradation of anthracene, a representative molecule of PAHs, using the high quantum yield semiconductor ZnO, has been reported. The solubility of anthracene in water makes necessary to use mixtures with or
