Photocatalytic activity of metal nanoparticle-decorated titanium dioxide for simultaneous H2 production and biodiesel wastewater remediation
A set of metal nanoparticle-decorated titanium dioxide (M

/TiO
2
; where
x
is the percent by mass
%) photocatalysts was prepared
via
the sol-immobilization in order to enhance the simultaneous hydrogen (H
2
) production and pollutant reduction from real biodiesel wastewater. Effect of the metal nanoparticle (NP) type (M = Ni
Au
Pt or Pd) and
for Pd
the amount (1 %-4 %) decorated on the surface of thermal treated commercial TiO
2
(
T
400
) was evaluated. The obtained results demonstrated that both the type and amount of decorated metal NPs did not significantly affect the pollutant reduction
measured in terms of the reduction of chemical oxygen demand (COD)
biological oxygen demand (BOD) and oil grease levels
but they affected the H

production rate from both deionized water and biodiesel wastewater
which can be ranked in the order of Pt

the Pd
