| Summary: | To investigate the influence of inorganic salt on the photocatalytic degradation, the effects of KBr and KI at various concentrations and pH values on the photocatalytic degradation of dye W-7G using nanoscaled titanium dioxide as photocatalyst in a bubbling fluidized bed photocatalytic reactor (BFBPR) were studied. The results indicated that the degradation apparent rate constant (Kapp) of the system with KI was clearly higher than that with KBr under acidic or alkaline conditions. And the maximum value of Kapp (0.01127) appeared at the KI concentration of 0.075 g L-1 with a pH value of 9.37, meaning the highest degradation efficiency. Furthermore, the possible mechanism of photocatalytic degradation of W-7G in the presence of KBr and KI was proposed, which could provide a theoretical support for the further study of inorganic salt effects on the photocatalytic degradation of dyes. |
