摘要
The photocatalytic degradation of high concentrations of various organic pollutants (acetone, 2-propanol and toluene) in dry and humid air streams was carried out using a specially designed photoreactor based on the UV-TIO, principle. The influence of several parameters which control the destruction efficiency (flow rate, initial contaminant and water vapour concentration, temperature and light intensity) has been studied. The conversion was maximal at room temperature, low flow rates and low initial contaminant concentrations. The presence of water in the inlet stream strongly affected the performance of the catalyst. The primary oxidation product of 2-propanol was acetone.
