Applications of titanium oxide photocatalysts and unique second-generation TiO_2 photocatalysts able to operate under visible light irradiation for the reduction of environmental toxins on a global scale

摘要

The present investigation deals with practical applications of titanium oxide photocatalysts and the development of unique secondgeneration titanium oxide photocatalysts by applying advanced ionengineering techniques, enabling effective and efficient reactions not only under ultraviolet (UV) but also under visible light irradiation. Solar beams are absorbed up to 30-40 percent more efficiently, allowing the large scale use of these titanium oxide photocatalysts for the reduction of environmental toxins.
