Abstract

Nano TiO2 embedded in diatomite (NTED) synthesis materials were prepared by a sol–gel method in absolute ethyl alcohol suspension. NTED synthesis materials have a higher specific surface area and larger pore volume using micromeritics ASAP 2020. The result of characterization was measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The cyanide wastewater was employed to evaluate the adsorption capacity and photocatalytic activity of prepared NTED synthesis materials. The better photocatalytic activity and adsorption capacity of NTED synthesis materials are attributed to their high surface area and higher UV absorption intensity for the cyanide wastewater.
