| Abstract: | Photocatalytic reduction of 6-chloro-3-nitrotoluene-4-sulfonic acid (CNSA) was studied in UV-irradiated TiO2 suspensions in the presence of methanol and surfactants. A mixture of CNSA, TiO2, water, additives and surfac-tants was put into a quartz glass reactor with a jacket, which was irradiated with a high pressure Hg lamp in the purg-ing of nitrogen gas. With methanol, the conversion of CNSA increased from 7.7% to 34.6%. Three surfactants signifi-cantly promoted the photocatalytic reduction conversion in reduced order of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (DBS), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS). In suspensions involving DBS and CTAB respectively, CNSA conversion increased in consistence with the adsorption ratio with methanol, but varied inversely with the adsorption ratio without methanol. But no obvious influence on the adsorption ratio was observed with or without methanol added when the SDS concentration was critical micelle concentration (cmc). The photocata-lyric reduction of CNSA was enhanced in UV-irradiated TiO2 suspensions in the presence of methanol and surfactants. Methanol inhibited the recombination of photogenerated holes and electrons efficiently. Surfactants around 1 cmc led to the highest reduction conversion. |
