Abstract
AbstractIn this paper, we describe a novel approach for destroying organic compounds in aqueous solution based on the principles of semiconductor photocatalysis and radiolysis. Specifically, this new method, radiocatalysis, has been used for the degradation of organic molecules such as ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA). Our experiments were performed by irradiating organic solutions containing catalytic colloidal TiQ with γ-rays from a
