Abstract
A CNT-<TEX>$TiO_2$</TEX> nano composite was prepared from titanium chloride (<TEX>$TiCl_4$</TEX>) via sol-gel process using multi walled carbon nano tube (MWCNT) followed by calcination at <TEX>$450^{\circ}C$</TEX>. Spectral analysis revealed that the formed <TEX>$TiO_2$</TEX> resided on the carbon in anatase form. The effect of adsorption was investigated using aqueous solution of methylene blue and procion blue dye. The photochemical reaction of CNT-<TEX>$TiO_2$</TEX> composite in aqueous suspensions was studied under UV illumination in batch process. The reaction was investigated by monitoring the discoloration of the dyes employing UV-Visible spectro-photometeric technique as a function of irradiation time. The catalyst composites were found to be efficient for the photodegradation of the dye.
