Investigation of curcumin as sensitizer for anatase TiO2 nanoparticles in photodegradation of of phenazopyridine with visible light

This work describes a photodegradation catalyst, for water organic contaminants in visible light, based on curcumin (a natural dye) sensitized TiO2 (anatase) nanoparticles. Phenazopyridine (a pharmaceutically active gradient) was used as a contaminant. A 400 nm, and shorter, cut of filter was use...
