研究目的
Investigating the photocatalytic degradation kinetics of gaseous formaldehyde using TiO2 nanowires under UV irradiation, focusing on reaction kinetics, factors affecting degradation rate, and catalyst performance.
研究成果
TiO2 nanowires prepared by hydrothermal method exhibit high photocatalytic activity for formaldehyde degradation under UV light, with kinetics following the LHHW model but not first-order. Degradation rate is influenced by light intensity, flow rate, and catalyst properties. The catalyst shows good stability over time. Future work should explore visible light activation and practical application scaling.
研究不足
The study is limited to UV irradiation (365 nm) and may not be efficient under visible light. The homemade reactor setup might not be scalable for industrial applications. The kinetic model assumes specific adsorption conditions that may not hold in all environments. Potential optimizations include extending to visible light catalysts and improving reactor design for higher flow rates.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved synthesizing TiO2 nanowires via a hydrothermal method to enhance surface area and active sites for photocatalytic efficiency. A homemade tube reactor was used for real-time monitoring of formaldehyde degradation under UV LED irradiation. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood-Hougen-Watson (LHHW) model was applied for kinetic analysis.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
TiO2 nanowires were prepared from titanium(IV) oxide (P25) and annealed at different temperatures (600°C, 650°C, 700°C). Formaldehyde gas at low concentration (0.5 mg/m3) was used as the pollutant source.
3:5 mg/m3) was used as the pollutant source. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: Equipment included a hydrothermal reactor, ultrasonic stirrer, X-ray diffractometer (XRD, Shimadzu XRD7000), transmission electron microscope (TEM, Libra 200FE, Zeiss), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM, JSM-7800F10100), X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS, VG ESCALAB 250), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR, Perkin Elmer Frontier), UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer (Agilent Cary 5000), photoluminescence spectrometer (PL, Hitachi F-7000), nitrogen adsorption apparatus (Quadrasorbevo 2QDS-MP-30), electrochemical workstation (AUTOLAB PGSTAT 302N), gas chromatography (GC-2018, Shimadzu), and UV LED lamps (365 nm). Materials included titanium(IV) oxide (Aeroxide P25), NaOH, HCl, formaldehyde gas, and asbestos fiber.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
TiO2 nanowires were synthesized hydrothermally, washed, annealed, and characterized. Photocatalytic degradation tests were conducted in a quartz tube reactor with controlled flow rates and light intensities. Formaldehyde concentration was monitored before and after degradation using gas chromatography.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Kinetic data were fitted to the LHHW model. Statistical analysis included linear fitting for reaction order determination. Software tools for instrument operation and data processing were not specified.
