Heterogeneous photocatalysis is a promising technology especially for environmental remediation. Despite more than a decade of worldwide research in developing photocatalytic efficiency improving techniques, many questions regarding the... more
Fe-NH2-BDC, a mesoporous metal-organic framework (MOF) has high surface area. The structural characteristics of Fe-NH2-BDC have exhibited a good candidate for application potentialities in gas storage, separation and heterogeneous... more
In the last couple of years, an increasing number of dead marine animals that are full of plastic waste which ends up in the seas and oceans has been evident. Actually, micro-plastics (5-1000 μm) have been detected in the stomachs of... more
Photocatalytic degradation of nitrobenzene (NB) and an azo dye (namely azophloxine) was carried out using zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles which were prepared by electrochemical method using zinc electrodes in aqueous oxalic acid solution.... more
A new visible light sensitive photocatalysts based on Zr 1−x V X O 2 (x = 1, 3, 5, and 7) compositions for treatment of organic dyes in wastewater were investigated. Pure and V-doped ZrO 2 samples were prepared by sol-gel techniques. The... more
Due to the toxicity effects and endocrine disrupting properties of many organic compounds, their removal from water and wastewater has gained widespread global attention. This review summarizes photocata-lytic degradation of different... more
Iron-doped TiO2 nanopowders with different doping amounts have been prepared by co-precipitation method followed by heat treatment. The obtained materials were structurally, morphologically and analytically characterized by X-ray... more
The heterogeneous photocatalytic degradation of dyes reactive red 120 and reactive blue 4 under ideal solutions and hydrolysates dyes simulating a staining process with an initial concentration of 50 mg • L-1 was studied, using 200 mg •... more
A suitable model for predicting the product quality of vacuum gas oil (VGO) catalytic hydrocracking is developed. Data were obtained using an experimental catalytic hydrocracking reactor loaded with the Ni-Mo/Al2O3-SiO2 catalyst. A set of... more
We report results of density functional theory (DFT) calculations on some colorless aromatic systems adsorbed on a TiO2 nanocluster, in order to explain experimental results regarding the photocatalytic degradation of these pollutants... more
Between the end of the 15th century and beginning of the 16th, the Portuguese and the Spanish expanded their empires to the Americas. While the Portuguese soon dedicated to the exploitation of brazilwood, the Spanish came to establish a... more
