Excellent antimicrobial and photocatalytic performance of C/GO/TiO2/Ag and C/TiO2/Ag hybrid nanocomposite beds against waterborne microorganisms
Abstract
Microbiologically contaminated water is a major health hazard worldwide. Where state-of-the-art solutions fail,nanomaterials come to the rescue with their multitasking features. Our study reports an excellent dual-modeaction of novel hybrid nanocomposite filtration beds that combine antimicrobial with photocatalytic features.The activated carbon (C) was used as a substrate for in situ surface decoration with graphene oxide (GO) andbioactive TiO2/Ag nanocomposite particles (NCP) via a zero-waste one-pot sol-gel approach. Obtained C/GO/NCP and C/NCP hybrid nanocomposites were extensively evaluated for their morphology, structure, physicochemicaland optical properties. The ability to decompose model methylene blue (MB) dye revealed their highphotocatalytic efficiency. Further studies have shown the high potential of carbon-supported nanocomposites ineliminating model and waterborne bacteria cells under static and close-to-real dynamic filtration conditions.After filtration, hybrid nanocomposites eliminated up to 100% of accumulated bacteria cells, which confirmedtheir self-purifying potential. Finally, we recovered the beneficial properties of developed nanocomposites withlow-temperature regeneration. Collectively, we proved the possibility of obtaining nanocomposite filtration bedswith high potential in eliminating microbiological contamination, self-disinfection ability, and the possibility of recycling with minimal maintenance effort. Our study brings nanotechnology much closer to practical application in the water maintenance industry.
