my.unimap-265722013-07-11T03:58:51Z Enhanced photocatalytic activity of fish scale loaded TiO 2 composites under solar light irradiation Ho, Li Ngee Ong, Soon-An Hakimah, Osman Chong, Fong-Mun holingee@yahoo.com Photocatalytic Degradation Dye Fish scale (FS) TiO2 Link to publisher's homepage at http://www.elsevier.com/ Fish scale (FS) loaded TiO2 composites were investigated as photocatalysts in degradation of Methyl Orange under solar light irradiation. Composites were prepared through sol-gel method by varying mass ratio of TiO2/FS at 90:10, 70:30 and 50:50, respectively. The catalysts prepared in this study were characterized by using XRD, SEM, FT-IR and nitrogen sorption. The effects of solar irradiation, mass ratio of TiO2/FS composites, irradiation time and catalyst loadings were studied. Synergistic effect was found in TiO2/FS of 90:10 composite which performed higher photocatalytic degradation than synthesized TiO2 under solar light irradiation. However, further increasing fish scale content in the composites reduced the photocatalytic activity drastically. Under solar light irradiation, all the catalysts in this study exhibited photocatalytic activity, except TiO2/FS of 50:50 composite that only acted as a weak biosorbent without performing any photocatalytic property. Photocatalytic degradation increased with increasing catalyst loading and irradiation time but decreased with increased of initial dye concentration. 2013-07-11T03:58:51Z 2013-07-11T03:58:51Z 2012-06 Article Journal of Environmental Sciences, vol. 24(6), 2012, pages 1142–1148 1001-0742 http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1001074211608723 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/26572 en Elsevier B.V. |
