Summary, etc. |
<p>Calcination of shell waste and subsequent processing resulted in CaCO<sub>3</sub> powder that was used as the catalyst support for TiO<sub>2</sub>/CaCO<sub>3</sub> catalyst. The catalyst has been characterized by scanning electron microscopy, BET measurements, X-ray diffraction, UV-visible diffused reflectance spectroscopy and Fourior transform infrared spectroscopy to elucidate the catalyst’s properties. The TiO<sub>2</sub> over CaCO<sub>3</sub> catalyst has been used as a photocatalyst in paraquat removal under optimized conditions of calcination temperature, TiO<sub>2</sub> loading method, loading content of Ti component, loading content of TiO<sub>2</sub> in the catalyst and light irradiation. The results show that all the experimental parameters significantly affect paraquat removal efficiency of the catalyst. The calcination temperature and TiO<sub>2</sub> loading method show the most significant effect.</p><p> </p> |
