Photocatalytic Decomposition of Air Pollutants using Electrodeposited Photocatalysts on Stainless Steel
PublicationThe aim of research was to develop an immobilization method for photocatalysts, which is an alternative to the sol-gel or dip coating methods and can be simply scaled up for technical applications. The investigated photocatalyst was TiO2, which was electrochemically deposited onto a cathode made of stainless steel. This deposited film was photocatalytically active. In order to enhance the photoactivity of the TiO2 film, commercially...

MINERAL MATTER IN MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE
PublicationMunicipal solid waste (MSW) contains mineral materials which are seldom considered as a potential resource. Currently, the waste management sector pays attention to recyclable parts, biodegradable material, waste-to-energy fraction, and residues after waste reuse and recycle. In contrast, this study focus as on the mineral matter in MSW. The aim was to analyze and discuss the sources of mineral matter in MSW, the impact which the...

Reactions of methyl radicals with silica supported silver nanoparticles in aqueous solutions
PublicationSilica supported silver nanoparticles (Ag°–SiO2 –NCs, NCs=nanocomposites) suspended in aqueous solutions are efficient catalysts for the dimerization of methyl radicals to produce ethane, while bare silica is quite inert towards the interaction with methyl radicals. In the presence of small amounts of ethanol adsorbed on the SiO2 surface, the reaction path with methyl radicals is changed and methane is formed as the major product.

Evaluation of cathode materials for electrochemical photocatalyst deposition
PublicationElectrochemical deposition of photocatalyst, especially TiO2, onto several cathode materials was investigated and evaluated. The deposited films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX) and electrochemical measurements. Photocatalytic activity was determined by the decomposition of cyclohexane in air by irradiation with ultraviolet light emitting diodes. It was found that...

Utilization of ionic liquids for the enrichment of biogas
PublicationThis article discusses the dependence of biogas composition on organic feed material. High amounts of CO2 decrease the calorific value of biogas. Several technologies are reviewed which can be used to increase the calorific value. Special emphasis is laid on ionic liquids as a new absorbing material. ILs have a number of advantages due to their unique properties such as: low melting point, high thermal conductivity, no flammability,...

Characterization and Technical Application of Fine Photocatalytical Particles - A Study of the Immobilization of Photocatalysts
PublicationThe main aim of this dissertation was the transfer of photocatalytical laboratory scale experiments to semi-technical scale. Preliminary experiments of the purification of organic chlorine-loaded waters and the immobilization of photocatalysts were performed, which yielded the research back to the roots of synthesis. The first applied research was carried out on treatment of recreational water. Several light sources, particularly...

Photolytic and Photocatalytic Recreational Water Treatment
PublicationDisinfection is one of the most important steps during recreational water treatment. Nevertheless, disinfection by-products are formed by conventional disinfectants, which pose several health threats. The concentration of disinfection by-products can be decreased by photolytic and photocatalytic treatment. Medium-pressure mercury lamp, UV-LEDs and solar irradiation were investigated and evaluated considering emitted wavelength,...

Attachment of silica and alumina nanoparticles as studied by QCM
PublicationNanocząstki są wykorzystywane w mikroelektronice do produkcji bardzo płaskich i gładkich powierzchni. Proces produkcji taki materiałów nazywany jest planaryzacją chemiczno-mechaniczną (CMP). Poniewąż nanocząstki na skutek interakcji z produkowanym materiałem specjalistyczntycznym mogą wiązać do jego powierzchni, na skutek czego powodując zanieczyszczenia. Ze względu na wpływ zanieczyszczeń na wydajność i miarodajność produkowanego...
