Outline of Final Research Achievements

To synthesize (recover) fine chemical via a titanium dioxide photocatalytic system combined with silica-based adsorbent, high-performance photocatalysts and adsorbents have been developed. As a highlight of this project, 100% pure benzoic acid was recovered at a significantly high yield by using magadiite as an additive capable of separating/accommodating the product in a titanium dioxide photocatalytic system oxidizing toluene.
