Influence of Gold Nanoparticles on the Photocatalytic Action of Titanium Dioxide in Physical-Chemical Parameters of Greywater

The objective of the work was to evaluate the influence of gold nanoparticles, obtained by laser ablation, on the photocatalytic action of titanium dioxide in the improvement of the physical-chemical parameters of domestic greywater, with visualization by means of a PLC. The YAG laser equipment was...
