Photodegradation of Methylene Blue and Crystal Violet by Zr-Modified Engelhard Titanium Silicate 10
The present work focuses on the removal of dyes from polluted water, and, more precisely, the targets are crystal violet (CV) and methylene blue (MB). For this purpose, a series of Zr-modified catalysts based on microporous Engelhard Titanium Silicate 10 (ETS-10) were developed and synthesized. Aiming at improvement in the photodegradation efficiency and stability of ETS-10, Zr centers replacing part of Ti ones were introduced during the synthesis procedure. The obtained Na-K-ETS-10/xZr catalysts were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF), N2 physisorption and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The photocatalytic properties of Na-K-ETS-10/xZr- (x = 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt% Zr) catalysts were studied in terms of water purification from crystal violet and methylene blue. The Na-K-ETS-10/xZr wt% x = 6 catalyst appeared to be the most efficient in the photodegradation of CV and MB, removing nearly 100% of the dyes. Kinetic studies showed that the removal of CV and MB is a rapid process and one, which obeys the non-linear pseudo-second-order model.
