Application of CuFe2O4 For Photocatalytic Fenton Treatment of Glycerol Solution

Application of CuFe2O4 For Photocatalytic Fenton Treatment of Glycerol Solution

This study reports on the glycerol decomposition using photocatalytic fenton technique. Visible light-responsive CuFe204 photocatalyst was synthesized using sol-gel method employing Cu:Fe ratio of 1 :2 by mo!. In the presence of xenon lamp (250 W), the performance of photocatalytic fenton degradatio...
