    Natural volcanic ashes from the Canary Islands were used as a photocatalyst and support for nanostructured TiO2 powder to photooxidize aqueous ammonia. TiO2 was modified on the volcanic ash support and shown to have excellent properties for producing hydroxyl radicals and photocatalytic activity for oxidizing ammonia in water. The goal was to explore using a locally available volcanic ash resource combined with TiO2.

    Objective: natural volcanic ashes particles from volcanic lava soil occurring in the Canary Islands were

    used as photocatalyst and as support for nanostructured TiO2 powder.

    Gap of Knowledge: using the volcano ashes and TiO2 from others sources to produce as good as the
    photocatalytic activity from this paper for oxidation of aqueous ammonia

    PHOTOOXIDATION OF AQUEOUS AMMONIA USING


    PHOTOCATALYST TiO2 MODIFIED SIO2 VOLCANIC ASHES
    Titanium dioxide has been widely used in the photocatalytic process due to the excellent
    properties such as high production of hydroxyl radicals, inexpensive, non-toxic and having
    physical and chemical stability, and its crystal structure [1]. In general, TiO2 has three crystal
    forms namely, anatase, rutile, and brookite. The phase transformation of TiO2 depends on the
    calcinations temperature and dopant. As known, anatase or the mixture phase of anatase and
    rutile show the highest photocatalytic activity. Anatase with large surface area, high crystallinity
    and nanoscaled crystallite size exhibits a high photocatalytic activity.
