Adsorption and photocatalytic scavenging of 2-chlorophenol using carbon nitride-titania nanotubes based nanocomposite: Experimental data, kinetics and mechanism.

ABSTRACT: Adsorption and interaction of pollutant species on surface of the catalyst materials play an important role on the photocatalysis process. Herein, experimental data on the adsorption behavior of 2-chlorophenol (2-CP) onto graphitic pure carbon nitride (C₃N₄), titania nanotubes (TiO₂-NTs) and carbon nitride/titania nanotubes nanocomposite (C₃N₄/TiO₂-NTs) from synthetic wastewater has been summarized. The data on photocatalytic degradation of the 2-CP under both ultraviolet (UV) and visible light irradiation is also presented. This work also evaluates the 2-CP scavenging efficiency of C₃N₄/TiO₂-NTs nanocomposite prepared by calcination of 2 wt.% melamine with TiO₂-NTs at 450 °C. The
