Recent Advances in Photocatalytic Degradation of Dyes Using Heterogeneous Catalysts

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Trends and Contemporary Technologies for Photocatalytic Degradation of Dyes

Part of the book series: Environmental Science and Engineering ((ESE))

Abstract

Synthetic dyes are playing a vital role in day-to-day life as different products ranging from textiles to leather to furniture contain dye for colouring purposes. It is reported that 12% of these dyes are wasted during processing. However, these industrial non-biodegradable dyes often enter water bodies such as groundwater, river, and lake and pollute them. Removal of these hazardous pollutants or dyes from wastewater has gained attention due to environmental concerns. Various techniques have been developed for the removal of these carcinogenic dyes from the natural environment. Degradation of dyes and eventually their removal from the mainstream and aquatic media using UV or visible light in the presence of photocatalyst (PC) are some reasonable technologies. Photocatalytic degradation (PD) could convert bio non-degradable dye complex molecules into smaller, non-carcinogenic, low molecular species. The process of PD is based on the generation of highly reactive, hydroxyl and superoxide anion radicals, which target the dye molecules and convert them into H2O and CO2. The chapter focuses on the principle and mechanism of dye degradation using heterogeneous photocatalyst. A brief discussion of the various important heterogeneous photocatalyst in the degradation of dye will be discussed in the latter part of the chapter.
