Development of a novel photocatalytic reactor for the treatment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. (2019)
Thesis
GBADAMOSI, T.G. 2019. Development of a novel photocatalytic reactor for the treatment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. Robert Gordon University [online], PhD thesis. Available from: https://openair.rgu.ac.uk

Water pollution through the discharge of contaminated water into the environment has been a major problem, both to humans and aquatic life. These potential consequences mean that water pollution has therefore received major attention. In industry, a...

Directly enhancing the photocatalytic transformation of CO2 and water to renewable fuels. (2013)
Thesis
SKILLEN, N. 2013. Directly enhancing the photocatalytic transformation of CO2 and water to renewable fuels. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

The increases in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) concentrations and depletion of hydrocarbon based fuels have become global concerns. As a result, a number of methods are being developed which aim to restrict GHG and to develop alternative fuels from sustainabl...

Evaluation and testing of a novel photocatalytic reactor with model water pollutants. (2007)
Thesis
MOHAMMED, A.O. 2007. Evaluation and testing of a novel photocatalytic reactor with model water pollutants. Robert Gordon University, MRes thesis.

Semiconductor photocatalysis is a newly emerging technology for the elimination of harmful chemical compounds from air and water. It couples low-energy ultraviolet light with semiconductors acting as photocatalyst and thereby overcoming many of the d...
