  • Title: Degradation of Direct Black 38 dye under visible light and sunlight irradiation by N-doped anatase TIO₂ as photocatalyst.
    Author: Collazzo GC, Foletto EL, Jahn SL, Villetti MA.
    Journal: J Environ Manage; 2012 May 15; 98():107-11. PubMed ID: 22257572.
    Abstract:
    The N-doped TiO(2) photocatalyst was prepared by calcination of a hydrolysis product composed of titanium (IV) isopropoxide with ammonia as the precipitator. X-ray diffraction, surface area, XPS and UV-vis spectra analyses showed a nanosized anatase structure and the appearance of a new absorption band in the visible region caused by nitrogen doping. The degradation of Direct Black 38 dye on the nitrogen-doped TiO(2) photocatalyst was investigated under visible light and sunlight irradiation. The N-doped anatase TiO(2) demonstrated excellent photocatalytic activity under visible light. Under sunlight irradiation, the N-doped sample showed slightly higher activity than that of the non-doped sample.
