Corona-induced photoxidation of alcohols and hydrocarbons over TiO2 in the absence of a UV light source - a novel and environmentally friendly method for oxidation.
Corona-induced photooxidation is a novel oxidation methodology for the efficient oxidation of alcohols and hydrocarbons utilizing the advantage of both the high oxidizing power of ozone formed in the reactor as well as the photooxidation capability of the UV light generated during the corona discharge.
