A Lavoisier Mass Balance Model for Photooxidation of NO by Nano TiO2 in Roadway Microenvironments
Increasing number of research has demonstrated that photocatalytic pavements are a promising solution for air pollution remediation of automobile sources. Due to the complexity of quantifying and understanding the photocatalytic reductions of pollutants in real world settings, models have been suggested as a methodology to understand the pollution reduction under the various environmental conditions. The objective of this paper was to create a model for the photooxidation of NO to be used in a Lavoisier mass balance model for roadway microenvironments. Using results from a previous kinetic study, a multiple linear regression model was created for both the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model constants as a function of intensity and relativity humidity. The models for k and Kd were then incorporated into the Langmuir-Hinshelwood apparent reaction rate model allowing for determination of the photocatalytic oxidation of NO at different environmental conditions. The resulting model was validated by additional laboratory runs not used to create the model determining that 87 % of model explains the data variability.
