15. SELFCLEANING GLASS
Doping with nanoparticle photocatalyst made the glass
hydrophobic and photocatalyst destroy the bacteria or
other contaminants so glass always clean.
16. PHOTOCATALYTIC
WATER SPLITTING
Photocatalyst convert H2O into H2 through oxidation
process with the light irradiation. The example of efficient
photocatalyst in the UV range is based on a sodium
tantalite (NaTaO3) doped with La and loaded with a
cocatalyst nickel oxide.
18. CONVERTION of into
gaseous in the
presence of water
At present, proposed reaction mechanisms usually suggest the
creation of a highly reactive carbon radical from carbon monoxide and
carbon dioxide which then reacts with the photogenerated protons to
ultimately form methane.
19. STERILIZATION of
Surgical Instruments And Removal Of Unwanted Fingerprints From
Sensitive Electrical And Optical Components
Contaminants can be removed by UV light irradiation wtih the presence of photocatalyst
20. CRUDE OIL DECOMPOSITION
By using photocatalysts and UV-A radiation from the sun, the hydrocarbons
found in crude oil can be turned into H2O and CO2.
