"This book presents a coherent and comprehensive treatment of the subject with an up-to-date discussion of both principles (kinetic modeling, radiation balances, and energy efficiency), and applications (decontamination and disinfection of air and water). The book reviews novel reactor designs, various photocatalysts, power sources, and auxiliary equipment - essential topics for the successful application of photocatalysts."--Jacket Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index In OhioLINK electronic book center SpringerLink Subject Photocatalysis.
