Summary
Owing to their photocatalytic properties, semiconductor nanomaterials have been identified as a promising solution for addressing water scarcity and pollution issues, by assisting in removing organic contaminants.\nIn this work, the ability of tungsten oxide (WO3) nanoparticles (NP) towards pollutants removal, by adsorption and photodegradation, was investigated. The high surface area and low bandgap energy, Eg, enabling the use under visible light, contribute to successful application for pollutants degradation.\nAdditionally, this work introduces a simple and straightforward method for modifying flexible transparent glass fibers (GF) with such nanocatalysts and its application for environmental remediation. The resulting composite materials, display effective coverage of NP and offer the advantage of easier catalyst recovery, compared to powder usage. The photocatalytic efficiency under natural sunlight suggests its potential for cost-effective applications.
