Effect of platinum on the photocatalytic degradation of chlorinated organic compound

TiO2 nanoparticles, doped with di erent Pt contents, were prepared by a modified photodeposition method using Degussa P-25 TiO2, H2PtCl6 6H2O and methanol as the solvents. The physicochemical properties of Pt/TiO2 were investigated by the nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherm measurement technique, X-ray di raction analysis and photoluminescence spectra, respectively. Reaction rates from photocatalytic removal of dichloromethane over Degussa P-25 TiO2 and Pt/TiO2 were evaluated. The average diameter and BET surface area of the TiO2 catalyst particles were 300 nm and 50 m2/g, respectively. The degradation e ciency was 99.0%, 82.7%, 55.2%, and 57.9% with TiO2 at inlet concentrations of 50, 100, 200, and 300 ppm, respectively. And the degradation e ciency was 99.3%, 79.7%, 76.5%, and 73.4% with a 0.005 wt.% Pt/TiO2 at inlet concentrations of 50, 100, 200, and 300 ppm, respectively. In addition, we found that the photoluminescence emission peak intensities decreased with increases in the doping amount of Pt, which indicates that the irradiative recombination was weakened. Furthermore, the results showed that the UV/0.005 wt.% Pt/TiO2 process was capable of e ciently decomposing gaseous DCM in air.     

金属掺杂二氧化钛光催化还原硝酸氮

采用光沉积法制备了负载金属Fe或Cu的P25二氧化钛光催化剂,用TEM、ICP、XRD及UV-Vis等对其进行了表征,并测定其在20 W紫外灯照射下光催化还原硝酸氮、去除总氮的效果;考察了pH值、搅拌气体、金属的负载量、空穴清除剂甲酸的用量以及金属Ag-Cu复合沉积等条件的影响.反应2 h的结果表明,二氧化钛上载铜量增加,硝酸氮转化率随之增加,但最大总氮去除率和氮气选择性均出现在0.5%Cu负载量下;氮气搅拌和酸性条件下反应,形成氮气的选择性略低(62%),但最高的硝酸氮转化率和总氮去除率分别达到36.9%和23.2%;CO2作为搅拌气体.Cu的负载量为0.5%、甲酸用量为0.06 mol/L时.形成氮气选择性最好(88.4%).硝酸氮转化率和总氮去除率分别为29.5%和25.1%.同样条件下,采用二氧化钛上共沉积金属总质量分数为1%、Ag:Cu=1:1的催化剂,硝酸氮的转化率可达48.1%,总氮去除率为34.2%,氮气选择性为72.2%.     

Ag沉积对微弧氧化TiO2/Ti膜光催化性能的影响

以磷酸钠为电解液,采用微弧氧化技术在钛网上直接制备了TiO2膜.研究了硝酸银光沉积微弧氧化TiO2膜对直接耐晒蓝染料溶液的TiO2膜光催化活性,利用XRD、SEM和EDX对微弧氧化膜晶型、表面形貌和成分进行了分析.结果表明,微弧氧化TiO2膜主要由钛和锐钛矿TiO2组成,TiO2膜的光催化性能与电解时间有关.由于微弧氧化膜中锐钛矿TiO2含量相对较少,膜的光催化性能较差.光沉积银修饰微弧氧化TiO2膜可以改善膜的光催化性能,120 min对直接耐晒蓝溶液的光催化降解率由9.8%提高到26%.     

Morphology of metal nanoparticles photodeposited on TiO2/silical gel and photothermal activity for destruction of ethylene

The morphology of supported metal nanoparticles on TiO2/silical gel （TSO） and photothermal synergism were investigated for destruction of ethylene. During photocatalytic deposition of metal nanopartilces, the effects of pH and light intensity on the morphology of coated platinum, palladium, gold on TiO2/silical gel were studied. Moreover, these catalysts were characterized by TEM, UV-Vis DRS. The pH of preparing solution have strong influence on dispersion, size and sites of Pt, Pd and Au on TSO, which were controlled by the electrostatic binding of HPtCl5^- AuCl4^- and TiOH2^＋, Pd^2＋ and TiO^- respectively. Platinum, gold and palladium nanoparticles were uniformly highly dispersed on the titanol sites not silanol of TiO2/silical gel under pH=2, pH =9.9 respectively. For the photodegradation of ethylene, they show higher photothermal efficiency than those prepared with other pH conditions under UV illumination in a non-circulating photoreactor. The optimum weight loadings of Pt, Au, and Pd were 0.25 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 1 wt%, respectively. The synergistic effect enhanced ethylene removal and CO2 production. Thcse results verify that the best photothermal synergistic effect depends on the dispersion, size of noble metal nano-particles. FTIR analyses of the used Pt-, Pd-TSO catalysts indicated that no significant by-products were accumulated on the surface of the catalysts, leading to them longer lifetime.
