Abstract
Preparation of titanium oxide photocatalysts loaded on activated carbon fiber (ACF) using an ionized cluster beam (ICB) method and their photocatalytic reactivity for the oxidative degradation of organic pollutants (alkyl alcohols, phenol) diluted in water were investigated. The utilization of the ICB method under oxygen atmosphere enables the preparation of titanium oxide photocatalysts on ACF relatively low temperature without causing any damages t the supports. Characterization using spectroscopic techniques indicates that fine particles of TiO2 having a quantum size effect are formed on the supports mainly as an anatase structure. The combination of the photocatalytic reactivity of TiO2 and the adsorption ability of ACF was effective for the degaradation of oraganic pollutants diluted in water into CO2 and H2O.
