This perspective paper compares the properties and applications in the environmental and
health fields of organic photosensitizers (embedded in solid organic or inorganic inert …

Environmental pollution and destruction on a global scale have drawn attention to the vital
need for totally new environmentally friendly, clean chemical technologies and processes …

Heterogeneous photocatalysis is an advanced oxidation process which has been the
subject of a huge amount of studies related to air cleaning and water purification. All these …

Contamination of the environment has been a growing problem in recent years. Due to the
rapid growth in human population, the expansion of cities, along with the development of …

Photocatalysis is the process by which various undesired substrates are reduced or oxidised
on the surface of a photoresponsive material when exposed to a sufficiently energetic …

This article reviews two interrelated areas of research: the first is the use of TiO 2-supported
adsorbent materials as enhanced heterogeneous photocatalysts and their application to …

Photocatalysis is based on the double aptitude of the photocatalyst (essentially titania) to
simultaneously adsorb both reactants and to absorb efficient photons. The basic …

Recently, environmental disruption is proceeding on a global scale through the consumption
of huge amounts of fossil fuels and the emission of various chemical substances. However …

A series of materials based on titanium dioxide modified with platinum (IV), chromium (VI)
and chromium (III) compounds were prepared. Their photocatalytic activity upon visible light …

Several TiO 2-based photocatalytic systems that have considerable visible light response
have been developed, such as the photodegradation of organic pollutants on sensitized TiO …
