Electrospinning of porous composite materials for hydrogen storage application
(University of the Western Cape, 2016)
Due to the rapid depletion of fossil fuel reserves and the production of environmentally harmful by-products such as carbon dioxide, there is an urgent need for alternate sustainable clean energy. One of the leading ...
The composition of photocatalytic nanofibres through electrospinning
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
The aim of this study was to enrich electrospun fibres with the active mineral
phase TiO2 nanoparticles and then to evaluate how well the composite fibres
performed in the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue ...
Photocatalytic activity of supported TiO2 nanocrystals
(2013)
In recent times, the occurrence and presence of complex recalcitrant toxic contaminants in water and wastewater is increasing and consequently contributes to the non-availability of clean and safe drinking water. Water ...
Functionalisation of polymer nanofibres and track-etched membrane removal of organic and and inorganic pollutants from water
(University of the Western Cape, 2017)
Organic and inorganic pollutants are two broad classes of pollutants in the
environment with their main sources from waste waters that are indiscriminately
dumped from chemical related industries. Among the organic ...
