Measurement of the photocatalytic efficiency of FN NANO®2 coating on an idealized urban model
 Nosek, Štěpán
An experiment was conducted to test the effectiveness of the FN NANO®2 coating in removing a harmful pollutant (NOX) by photocatalysis on a surface in a model of an urban street canyon. The experiment was conducted in a wind tunnel under controlled conditions, simulating two cases of street canyon pollution: from a line source within the canyon and a polluted incoming boundary layer. The results showed that the coating has an average efficiency of 15% when removed from NOX, with the efficiency decreasing with height within the street canyon. The removal efficiency depends on the type of pollution. In the case of the polluted incoming boundary layer, the coating showed very high efficiency in removing NO (average efficiency of 19%) and NO2 (average efficiency of 7%). These results show that both methods can be used to analyse the removal of NOX concentrations by the FN NANO®2 coating in a street canyon.

Measurement of photocatalytic efficiency of FN NANO®2 coating on Legerova street model
 Nosek, Štěpán
An experiment was conducted to test the effectiveness of the FN NANO®2 coating in removing a pollutant (NOX) by photocatalysis on a surface in a model of a real urban street canyon. The experiment was conducted in a wind tunnel under controlled conditions and simulated the case of pollution of a Legerova street model by an upwind boundary layer polluted by NOX concentrations from a car. The results showed that the coating has a higher degradation efficiency for NO (up to 15%) than for NOX (max. 12%), with the efficiency depending on the investigated position. The lowest efficiency was achieved in streets aligned parallel to the upwind boundary layer, which are naturally better ventilated.

THE PHOTOCATALYTIC ABATEMENT OF NOX IMISSIONS USING COMMERCIAL FUNCTIONAL COATING WITH POROUS MORPHOLOGY
 Žouželka, Radek
Titanium dioxide is the most important photocatalysts used for purifying applications. It was the purpose of this study to investigate the photocatalytic activity of commercial Protectam FN (R) containing TiO2 nanoparticles towards NO and NO2. Experiments on concrete as a support for photocatalyst were carried out in two types of reactors with laminar and turbulent flow under ´´real world setting´´ conditions of temperature, relative humidity, irradiation and pollutant concentrations. The results showed that photocatalytic process significantly reduced both nitrogen oxides in the air. The decrease in the total concentration of nitrogen oxides on contact with the photocatalytic surface reached 20-50 %, i.e. at a concentration of 100 ppb the decrease in NO and NO2 was 20-50 ppb. The nitrogen oxides were oxidized up to their highest oxidation state, nitric acid ( or nitrates) and undesirable nitrous acid was not formed at all. The experimental study conducted showed that the photocatalytic oxidation on the surface of the photocatalytic Protectam FN (R) coating is an effective method for the removal of nitrogen oxides from contaminated air.
