Kinetics of photocatalytic and electrophotocatalytic degradation of swimming pool water model pollutants
Morávková, Eva ; Cihlář, Jaroslav (referee) ; Veselý, Michal (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the coating and printing of thin layers based on nanoparticles of titanium dioxide and organosilica binder on various substrates. The influence of the ratio of the both components on the activity of the prepared immobilized layers was studied. Five compositions with different ratios of TiO2 and binder were prepared. The work focuses mainly on the study of photocatalytic and photoelectrocatalytic properties of prepared layers. It was also important to characterize the mechanical properties of the layer such as hardness or adhesion. Both photocatalytic and photoelectrocatalytic activity were determined by monitoring the degradation of the model pollutants in aqueous solutions. The dye Acid Orange 7 and UV filter 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone were used in conjunction with UV/VIS spectroscopy or high performance liquid chromatography techniques. Both photocatalytic and photoelectrocatalytic activity were expressed using kinetic characteristics.

Voltammetric determination of benzophenone-3 at carbon paste electrode
Molitor, Vít ; Zima, Jiří (advisor) ; Navrátil, Tomáš (referee)
A method for analysing benzophenone-3 on carbon paste electrode was developed. As a solvent a mixture Britton-Robinson buffer and methanol was used. The pH value of 12 was determined as optimal for further measurements. It was also found out that methanol added to the analyte solution did not negatively influence the voltammetric measurement. To decrease the limit of benzophenone-3 determination the accumulation of the analyte in the electrode surface was studied. The accumulation time of 300 seconds and accumulation potential of +400 mV were used as optimal. When measured under optimal coniditions the limit of detection was 6×10-7 M in deionised water and 5,5×10-7 M in drinking water. Real sample was measured using differential pulse voltammetry and spectrophotometry.

Determination of benzophenone-3 on boron-doped diamond film electrode
Procházková, Kateřina ; Dejmková, Hana (advisor) ; Vyskočil, Vlastimil (referee)
Voltammetric behaviour of benzophenone-3 on a diamond film electrode doped by boron was studied by difference pulse voltammetry in an anodic area in the Britton-Robinson buffer medium. The influence of supporting electrolyte pH on the determination was monitored as well as the influence of methanol and acetonitrile content in the measured sample. pH 12 was selected as the optimum value for the determination. Methanol did not have any influence on the determination up to the content of 20 % (v/v), acetonitrile up to content of 70 % (v/v). A linear calibration dependence was measured in the medium of Britton-Robinson buffer pH 12 within the benzophenone-3 concentration range from 1·10-6 mol·L-1 to 1·10-4 mol·L-1 . Detection limit 1.5·10-6 mol·L-1 and determination limit 5.0·10-6 mol·L-1 have been reached. Key words Benzophenone-3 Boron-doped diamond film electrode Differential pulse voltammetry
