IAAPC-Photo-Catalytic Disinfection Of Bio-pollutants-A Review – Nithiya Priya

Heterogeneous Photo-catalysis has attracted great attention as alternative treatment method for air and water purification process. It has been found that among a large variety of semi-conductors, Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) under UV irradiation with light wavelengths lower than 385 nm, is the most efficient photocatalyst for environmental cleaning and decontamination. This article reviews the work that has been published on disinfections and the killing of bio- aerosols by photo-catalysis using titanium dioxide (TiO2)
