Graphene-Based Catalysts for Ozone Processes to Decontaminate Water
subject: Ozone, catalytic ozonation, graphene oxide, photocatalytic ozonation, water contaminants
description: The use of graphene-based materials as catalysts in both ozone and ozone/radiation processes is creating interest among researchers devoted to the study of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for the degradation of organic pollutants in water. In this review, detailed explanations of catalytic and photocatalytic ozonation processes mediated by graphene-based materials are presented, focusing on aspects related to the preparation and characterization of catalysts, the nature of the water pollutants treated, the type of reactors and radiation sources applied, the influence of the main operating variables, catalyst activity and stability, and kinetics and mechanisms.
