An overview of solar/visible light-driven heterogeneous photocatalysis for water purification: TiO<inf>2</inf>- and ZnO-based photocatalysts used in suspension photoreactors

© 2018 The Korean Society of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Heterogeneous photocatalysts are able to be prepared with various methods and are allowed to modify to improve photocatalytic efficiency. In this review, we evaluate current researches on (I) the development of TiO2- and ZnO-based pho...
