Abstract
Utility of activated carbon adsorbate as a support for TiO2 photocatalysts was demonstrated for photomineralization of propyzamide, a typical herbicide, in dilute aqueous solution. High adsorptive activity of the activated carbon support enables the organic pollutant to concentrate around the loaded TiO2, resulting in a high photocatalytic degradation rate.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
