Photoactive nanomaterials are receiving increasing attention due to their potential application to light-driven degradation of water and gas-phase pollutants. However, to exploit the strong potential of photoactive materials and access their properties require a fine tuning of their size/shape dependent chemical-physical properties and on the ability to integrate them in photo-reactors or to deposit them on large surfaces. Therefore, the synthetic approach, as well as post-synthesis manipulation could strongly affect the final photocatalytic properties of nanomaterials. The potential application of photoactive nanomaterials in the environmental field includes the abatement of organic pollutant in water, water disinfection, and abatement of gas-phase pollutants in outdoor and indoor applications.
光活性纳米材料因其在光驱动降解水相和气相污染物方面的潜在应用而受到越来越多的关注。然而，要充分发挥光活性材料的强大潜力并了解其特性，需要对其尺寸/形状相关的化学物理性质进行微调，并取决于将它们集成到光反应器中或沉积在大表面上的能力。因此，合成方法以及合成后处理可能会强烈影响纳米材料的最终光催化性能。光活性纳米材料在环境领域的潜在应用包括去除水中的有机污染物、水消毒以及在室外和室内应用中去除气相污染物。
