摘要
In this paper, photocatalytic degradation of commercial textile azo dyes catalyzed by titanium dioxide and modified titanium dioxide with Ag metal (1% w/w) in aqueous solution under irradiation with a 400 W high-pressure mercury lamp is reported. The effect of various parameters such as irradiation time of UV light, amount of photocatalyst, flow rate of oxygen, pH and temperature for the Ag-TiO2 photocatalyst were investigated. Kinetic investigations of photodegradation indicated that reactions obey improved Langmuir-Hinshelwood model and pseudo-first-order law. The rate constant studies of photocatalytic degradation reactions for Ag-TiO2 and TiO2 photocatalysts indicated that in all cases the rate constant of the reaction for Ag-TiO2 was higher than that of TiO2.
