PHOTOCATALIZING MATERIALS IN THE PRESENCE OF SOLAR RADIATION, PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING AND PROCEDURE FOR THE ELIMINATION OF POLLUTANTS BY PHOTODEGRADATION.

摘要

Photocatalyst materials in the presence of solar radiation, obtaining procedure and removal of pollutants by photodegradation. The present invention describes photocatalysts comprising organic xerogels with a photosensitizer, in the solid state, incorporated into the polymer matrix. These photocatalysts are useful to promote or catalyze advanced processes of oxidation and/or reduction, in particular processes that favor the photodegradation of organic compounds in the presence of uv radiation or visible light. In particular, the new synthesized materials have been developed in order to completely oxidize the organic molecules that commonly contaminate water or air.
