About this document

Ag-Ceria Photocatalysts for Water Purification by Venkata Deepak Kumar KOlluru is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document summarizes literature on using ceria and silver-doped ceria photocatalysts for degrading dyes from wastewater. Three key studies are reviewed that tested degradation of Rhodamine B, using Ag-CeO2, CeO2-TiO2, and Ag-TiO2 photocatalysts. The studies found that doping with silver improved degradation rates by weakening bonds and facilitating reactive species formation. Particle sizes were typically 5-30 nm. Degradation of over 99% was achieved within 8 hours with CeO2-TiO2. Minimum bacterial inhi
