| Abstract: | The study is aimed at evaluating the potential of
immobilized TiO2-based zeolite composite for solar-driven
photocatalytic water treatment. In that purpose, TiO2-iron-exchanged
zeolite (FeZ) composite was prepared using commercial
Aeroxide TiO2 P25 and iron-exchanged zeolite of ZSM5
type, FeZ. The activity of TiO2-FeZ, immobilized on glass
support, was evaluated under solar irradiation for removal of
diclofenac (DCF) in water. TiO2-FeZ immobilized in a form
of thin film was characterized for its morphology, structure,
and composition using scanning electron microscopy/energydispersive
x-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX). Diffuse reflectance
spectroscopy (DRS) was used to determine potential
changes in band gaps of prepared TiO2-FeZ in comparison
to pure TiO2. The influence of pH, concentration of hydrogen
peroxide, FeZ wt% within the composite, and photocatalyst
dosage on DCF removal and conversion efficiency by solar/
TiO2-FeZ/H2O2 process was investigated. TiO2-FeZ demonstrated
higher photocatalytic activity than pure TiO2 under
solar irradiation in acidic conditions and presence of H2O2. |
