Removal of Phenols by an Organically Modified Layered Niobate K4Nb6O17 through an Adsorption–photocatalytic Degradation Process
An organically modified layered niobate was applied to remove phenol and 2,4-dichlorophenol from aqueous solution through an adsorption-photocatalytic degradation process. It showed different performances and structural responses on removal of these two phenols due to their difference in hydrophobicity.
