Visible Light Active Structured Photocatalysts for the Removal of Emerging Contaminants: Science and Engineering addresses the potential role of visible active photocatalytic processes for the removal of emerging contaminants. The book discusses the classification, sources and potential risks of emerging pollutants in water as well as the different synthesis methods of visible active structured photocatalysts with relation to their applications in photocatalytic processes for the removal of organic and inorganic emerging contaminants. Finally, the possible reaction pathways occurring during the visible or solar photocatalytic processes together with toxicity assessment are discussed.

The book is a useful guide for academics, researchers and technicians in chemical engineering, chemistry and environmental sciences.

  • Defines emerging contaminants and what can be included in that group of contaminants commonly named "contaminants of emerging concern"
  • Presents different synthesis methods of visible active structured photocatalysts and their applications in solar or visible light photocatalytic systems for the removal of organic and inorganic emerging contaminants
  • Analyzes reaction pathways that occur during the visible or solar photocatalytic processes, also including toxicity assessments
