Project Name: Design and Development of Novel Nanocomposite Materials and Reactor Systems for Photocatalysis
Project Leaders: Jeremiah F. Wilson, Sammie Ely III, Bria M. Moore, & Lamont Henderson
Chapter Advisors: Dr. P.C. Sharma, Dr. Sesha Srinivasan,& Dr. Akshaya Kumar
Project Description: Photocatalysis is an inderdisciplinary field of research which involves the contribution not only from Physicists, chemists, material scientists, chemical and environmental engineers, but also demands often the need of technologists who can build the custom made reactor systems for different applications. Novel solid state materials’ development is equally important for the water/air decontamination and/or fuel generation process. In this research study, we propose to develop and demonstrate both aspects of reactor and materials’ design for the sunlight assisted photocatalysis.
