Summary
An experimental rig with a flat-plate solar reactor was built to study the effectiveness of degradation using the reactive methylene blue as sensitive objective. The factors that affect the degradation performance, such as dosages of photocatalyst (Ti02), initial concentration of reactive methylene blue, flow rate through the flat-plate reactor, solar UV radiation intensity and decolourising efficiency of the solution, have been investigated. The results showed that the solar PCO process with a Flat-plate Reactor could degrade the methylene blue and decolour in methylene blue solution efficiently.
