SummaryTable of ContentsAuthor Biography
From the fundamentals to recent developments, this book introduces scientists and engineers to photocatalysis and demonstrates its potential for improving water quality. It also points out strategies to increase the photocatalytic efficacy: synthesis of better photocatalysts, combination of photocatalysis with other technologies, and the correct design of photocatalytic reactors. Applications and a chapter on design approaches for photocatalytic reactors round off the book. A must-have read for materials scientists, water chemists, environmenta... MORE

Professor Pierre Pichat is first class Research Director at the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) in Lyon. He has been active in heterogeneous photocatalysis for more than three decades, and founded the laboratory of "Photocatalyse, Catalyse et Environment" at the Ecole Centrale de Lyon. He has published a great number of research papers and several review articles dealing with photocatalytic reactions and materials.
At the "9th International Conference on TiO2 photocatalysis: fundamentals and applications", held in 2004 in San Diego, he received an Appreciation Award acknowledging his pioneering contributions; this award has been conferred to only three scientists in 20 years.
