Abstract
Applied research data on advanced photocatalytic methods aimed at treatment of contaminated aqueous phase is presented. Phenol and chloroorganic pesticides (as model compounds) besides actual wastewater samples were UVphotodegraded using suspended TiO2 or UV/H2O2/air systems. Titanium dioxide catalysts modified with non-metal elements were used to photodegrade phenols in visible light. Laboratory and pilot scale reactors were used and the effect of process scale-up investigated.
