The nano-TiO2 composite photocatalysts,i.e.activated carbon supported TiO2(TiO2/AC),Tween-80,Cu2+and Fe3+doped TiO2,were separately prepared by sol-gel method,and the samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction(XRD) and ultraviolet-visible spectrometer(UV-VIS).The photocatalytic performances of the modified TiO2 materials were tested in ammonia and nitrogen solution under the irradiation of ultraviolet lamp,and the photocatalytic degradation pathways of the ammonia and nitrogen were also discussed.The results show that TiO2 doped by Cu2+ or Fe3+ is mainly composed of anatase phase,with the average particle size of TiO2 decreased.Obvious redshift of the absorption spectrum occurs for Cu2+ doped TiO2,while it is unconspicuous for Fe3+ doped TiO2.The order of photocatalytic degradation efficiency for ammonia and nitrogen by the materials(from high to low) is TiO2/AC>Fe3+/Tween-80/TiO2 & Cu2+/Tween-80/TiO2>Fe3+/TiO2 & Cu2+/TiO2.Simultaneous doping of Cu2+ and Fe3+ can play a.synergistic effect on photocatalytic efficiency of TiO2.The reaction pathways for photocatalytic oxidation of ammonia and nitrogen by the modified TiO2 are basically similar to those of bio-oxidation process,with N2 as the terminal product.
