Integrated adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) using carbon-based nanocomposites: A critical review

Zou, Weixin, Gao, Bin, Ok, Yong Sik, Dong, Lin·2019·Chemosphere

Abstract

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are harmful for human and surrounding ecosystem, and a great number of VOC abatement technologies have been developed during the past few decades. However, the single method has some problems such as high energy consumption, unfriendly environment, and low removal efficiency. Recently, the integration of adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of VOCs is considered as a promising one. Carbon material, with large surface area, high adsorption capacity, and fast electron transfer ability, is widely used in integrated adsorptive-photocatalytic removal of VOCs. It is thus crucial to digest and summarize recent research advances in carbon-based nanocomposites as the adsorbent-photocatalyst for VOC removal. To satisfy this need, this work provides a critical review of the related literature with focuses on: (1) the advantages and disadvantages of various carbon-based nanocomposites for the applications of VOC adsorption and photocatalytic degradation; (2) models and mechanisms of adsorptive-photocatalytic removal of VOCs according to the material properties; and (3) major factors controlling adsorption-photocatalysis processes of VOCs. The review is aimed to establish the "structure-property-application" relationships for the development of innovative carbon-supported nanocomposites and to promote future research on the integrated adsorptive and photocatalytic removal of VOCs.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
