This symposium focuses on the latest advances in photocatalytic processes for water treatment, aiming to explore innovative solutions to environmental challenges related to water purification and contamination control.
Photocatalytic Materials: Development of novel photocatalysts (semiconductors,nanomaterials, composites) for enhanced efficiency in degrading organic and inorganic pollutants in water.
Mechanisms of Photocatalysis: Fundamental insights into the photo-induced processes that drive the degradation of contaminants, including charge carrier dynamics, photogenerated species, and reaction pathways.
Challenges and Solutions in Water Treatment: Discussion on the challenges in scaling up photocatalytic processes for real-world applications, such as issues with photocatalyst stability, reaction kinetics, and the presence of complex pollutants.
Photoreactor Design and Process Engineering: Advances in the design and optimization of photoreactors, including hybrid systems that integrate photocatalysis with other treatment technologies for improved performance.
