The Applications of Photocatalytic Waste Minimisation in Nuclear Fuel Processing
Nuclear fuel processing has two main waste management requirements: (1) the disposal of waste organic solvent (secondary waste) generated by... -
Reactions Induced in Natural Waters by Irradiation of Nitrate and Nitrite Ions
This review describes the reaction mechanisms of nitrate and nitrite ions, which play a role in the photochemical processes occurring in natural... -
Mechanisms of Direct Photolysis of Biocides Based on Halogenated Phenols and Anilines
The halogenated phenols and anilines are the parent chromophores of a number of widely used pesticides, among them phenoxyacetic acid and... -
Basic Concepts of Photochemical Transformations
Photochemistry is concerned with the interaction between light and matter. The present chapter outlines the basic concepts of photochemistry in... -
Photocatalytic Detoxification of Water and Air
The use of semiconductor photocatalysis for treatment of water and air has been a topic of intense research activity over the past 20 years. This... -
Aquatic Phototransformation of Organic Contaminants Induced by Coloured Dissolved Natural Organic Matter
This review will first give a brief description of coloured dissolved organic matter (CDOM) from the aquatic environment or extracted from soil.... -
Photocatalytic Active Surfaces and Photo-Induced High Hydrophilicity/High Hydrophobicity
There are two types of photo-effects on a TiO 2 surface. One is the well-known photocatalytic reaction and another is the highly... -
Environmental Photochemistry in Heterogeneous Media
Heterogeneous reactions are widespread in all the environmental compartments: soils, hydrosphere, troposphere and at medium altitudes in the... -
Role of Iron in Light-Induced Environmental Processes
In this chapter, photochemical processes in natural aquatic systems involving iron in one way or another are reviewed. Homogeneous and... -
Introduction to Photochemical Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water Treatment
In this chapter, an overview of Photochemical Advanced Oxidation Technologies (PAOTs) is given, together with recent relevant literature examples... -
Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Photochemistry in the Troposphere
Key features of tropospheric photochemistry are highlighted including both homogeneous gas-phase and heterogeneous reactions that are important in... -
Recent Developments in the Environmental Photochemistry of PAHs and PCBs in Water and on Solids
This article updates the one on the same topic published in this series in 1999. The photochemistry of PAHs and PCBs in liquid water and on ice... -
Atmospheric Photooxidation of Gas Phase Air Pollutants
An overview of the gas-phase reactions responsible for the photooxidation of air pollutants is provided. Starting with an introduction to the... -
A multi-parameter monitoring system and early warning model for rainfall-induced landslides
