Summary: | The applications of photocatalytic processes have been explored, and their ability as microbial disinfection has been recognized. This review article will introduce the related parameters in semiconducting oxide photocatalyst applications as a photocatalytic microbial disinfection in order to provide better understanding on achieving excellent performance in photocatalytic disinfection. Several significant parameters have been identified, namely, pH, catalyst loading, particle size, temperature, inorganic ions, doping, light intensity, and irradiation time. This mini review may be useful for directing the photocatalyst research under the visible light region for microbial disinfection. |
