Review of Research Results for the Photocatalytic Oxidation of Hazardous Wastes in Air

Research output: NRELTechnical Report

Abstract

Laboratory experiments of gas-phase photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) at NREL have focused on measurements that can help commercialize this technology for treating gaseous air streams. This effort proceeds earlier NREL work and studies conducted elsewhere which demonstrates the general applicability of PCO. The more recent work concentrates on: the kinetics of PCO process; the formation anddestruction of intermediates; and possible enhancements to improve the destruction rates.
