In the current survey, the removal of dye from contaminated water was studied by photocatalytic degradation using TiO2 nanoparticles with respect to pH, TiO2 dosage, reaction time, temperature and initial dye concentration. TiO2 nanoparticles were investigated by XRD, FESEM and FT-IR.The RSM was chosen to study the composition effects of input independent factors and one […]
In this work, ZrO2/TiO2/ZnO ternary nanocomposites were prepared by the sol-gel technique. The Taguchi method with the L9 orthogonal array was utilized to optimize the experimental conditions for the preparation of nanocomposites. The design has four factors, and each factor has three levels. The design factors of this study were calcination temperature, the aging time, […]
SO4/ZrO2 heterogeneous acid catalyst was prepared by wet impregnation method from ZrO2 precursor involved variations in H2SO4 concentration (0.5; 1.0; 1.5 M) and calcination temperature (400, 500, 600 ℃) to yield catalyst with the highest acidity value. The catalysts produced were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope-Energy Dispersive […]
