Environmental photocatalytic processes with POM. The photodecomposition of atrazine and photoreduction of metal ions from aqueous solutions
Polyoxometalate anions (POM), resulting from the condensation of tungstate anions in strongly acidified solutions, can absorb efficiently light in the UV-near Vis region.The produced excited state is a very powerful oxidative reagent which can, mainly via OH radical attack, oxidize and mineralize a...
