HETEROGENEOUS PHOTOCATALYTIC DEGRADATION OF PHENOL IN AQUEOUS SUSPENSION OF PERIWINKLE SHELL ASH CATALYST IN THE PRESENCE OF UV FROM SUNLIGHT
The batch photocatalytic degradation of phenol in aqueous solution wasinvestigated using periwinkle shell ash (PSA) as photocatalyst. Chemical characterisation of the PSA revealed that the major oxides present were calcium oxide (CaO), silica (SiO2) and aluminium oxide (Al2O3) which accounted for 41...
