Abstract EN
Today, organic dyes are one of the largest groups of pollutants release into environment especially from textile industry.
It is highly toxic and hazardous to the living organism; thus, the removal of these dyes prior to discharge into the environment is essential.
Varieties of techniques have been employed to degrade organic dyes and heterogeneous photocatalysis involving titanium dioxide (TiO2) appears to be the most promising technology.
In recent years, TiO2 nanotubes have attracted much attention due to their high surface area and extraordinary characteristics.
This paper presents a critical review of recent achievements in the modification of TiO2 nanotubes for dye degradation.
The photocatalytic activity on dye degradation can be further enhanced by doping with cationic or anionic dopant.
