N-Doped TiO2: An Efficient Catalyst for the Photocatalytic Treatment of Water and Wastewater under Visible Light Irradiation

wastewater
As a consequence of the rapid growth of population in urban areas, water use and reuse has become a major concern, leading to an urgent imperative to develop effective and affordable technologies for wastewater treatment.

Traditional methods for wastewater treatment are usually based on physical and biological processes but unfortunately, some organic pollutants, classified as bio-recalcitrant, are not biodegradable.

In this way heterogeneous photocatalysis may become an interesting water treatment technology to remove organic pollutants not treatable by conventional technique.
