TiO2 on magnesium silicate monolith: Effects of different preparation techniques on the photocatalytic oxidation of chlorinated hydrocarbons

In this article, the comparative results of the photocatalytic oxidation of trichloroethylene (TCE) alone and a mixture of chlorinated hydrocarbons (trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene and chloroform) in gas phase, obtained with three different monolithic catalysts in a flat reactor frontally illum...
