Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is an important photocatalyst that is widely studied for environmental applications, especially for water treatment by degradation of pollutants. A range of methods have been developed to produce TiO2 in the form of nanoparticles and thin films. Solution-based synthesis methods offer the opportunity to tune the synthesis thr...
Understanding the interaction of the carboxylic group with TiO2 is crucial for photocatalytic degradation of pollutants, because aromatic molecules containing carboxylic acid groups are among the most common micropollutants. This study investigated the interactions of the anatase TiO2 (101) surface with several aromatic carboxylic acids: benzoic, n...
Candle soot, traditionally considered as an unwanted source of air-pollution, has slowly been phased out by modern lighting techniques. However, a 2007 study by Liu and co-workers first brought to light the presence of fluorescent carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) in untreated candle-soot (CS). Subsequent studies revealed that these soot-generated CNPs c...
