Synthesis of V, Er and Ce Substitued TiO2 Films via Sol-gel Method to Degrade Cyanide Content in Waste Water Under UV/Sunlight Source

27660

In this study, Vanadium (V), Erbium (Er) and Cerium (Ce) substituted TiO2 films were deposited on glass substrates via sol-gel technique in industrial scale in order to provide photocatalytic degradation of cyanide in waste water. Structural, microstructural and electrical properties of the thin films were examined and thin films coated on glass substrates were used as the photocatalyzer in the photocatalytic degradation of cyanide in waste waters under UV/sunlight source. It was found that 85-90 % efficiency was obtained in degradation of cyanide in waste water using modified TiO2 films.
