Synthesis of Tio2 Photocatalyst for Rhodamine B-Dye Degradation Under Solar Light

Abstract

Photocatalysis is one of the advanced oxidation process used widely for the degradation of waste water.In the current study synthesis of TiO2. Titanium Dioxide photocatalyst has been synthesized using Titanium tetrachloride as precursor. Titanium Dioxide thus obtained was used for degradation of Rhodamine B dye. pH of solution and dosage of the catalyst were optimized during the experimental work. TiO2 thus synthesized was characterized using FT-IR and XRD. Optimized conditions of 3 pH and 1.0 g/L of catalyst dosage lead to degradation of dye as 39.18% under solar light.
