PHOTOCATALYTIC DEGRADATION OF METHYL ORANGE AND RED YELLOW 145 USING A CdS/TiO2 NANOTUBE ARRAYS

Abstract

To further improve the photocatalytic techniques for water purification and
wastewater treatment. We have been fabricated a visible-light active
photocatalyst, CdS/TiO2 nanotube arrays (NTAs) photoelectrode, was prepared by
deposition of CdS quantum dots (QDs) using successive ion layer adsorption and
reaction (SILAR) methods onto TiO2 NTA. The synthesized nanomaterials showed
that the material was able to remove methyl orange and RY145 in water.
