|
The photocatalytic decolorization of Rhodamine B (RhB) was studied using immobilized and fluidized bed reactor. Immobilized (length: 12 mm, width: 13 mm, thickness: 0.52 mm) onto silicone sealant was employed as the photocatalyst and a 30 W germicidal lamp was used as the light source and the reactor volume was 4.8 L. The effects of parameters such as the amounts of photocatalyst, initial concentration, initial pH, superficial velocity, and anion additives. () The results showed that the optimum dosage of the immobilized were 87.0 g/L. Initial removal rate of RhB of the immobilized was 1.5 times higher than that of the powder because of the adsorption onto the surface of immobilized In the conditions of acidic pH, initial reaction rate was increased slowly and reaction time was shorted. The effect of anion type on the reaction rate was not much.
