Photocatalytic oxidation of air toxics via visible light irradiation and nano-photocatalysts

This thesis explores synthesis of various types of metal oxide nanoparticles through a wet-chemical synthesis route. The materials were used for photocatalytic oxidation of gaseous toluene irradiated with UV, artificial solar light, and pure visible light. Tantalum based compounds like BiTaO4: La, B...
