Abstract
Near-UV photocatalytic disinfection was accomplished in aqueous titanium dioxide suspensions. A level of inactivation of phage MS2 of 90% increased to 99.9% after 2 muM ferrous sulfate was added. Hydroxyl radical oxidation, with Fenton reaction enhancement, is suspected to be primarily responsible for the viral degradation observed.Entities:
