Effect of water compounds on photo-disinfection efficacy of TiO2 NP-embedded cellulose acetate film in natural water
Photocatalysis disinfection has great potential for irrigation water disinfection to improve fresh produce safety. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticle (NP)-embedded cellulose acetate (CA) film has shown effectiveness against Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 in water. The current study evaluated t...

Photocatalysis disinfection has great potential for irrigation water disinfection to improve fresh produce safety. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticle (NP)-embedded cellulose acetate (CA) film has shown effectiveness against Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 in water. The current study evaluated the effect of natural water compounds on the photo-disinfection efficacy of TiO2 NP-embedded CA film. Humic acid, calcium carbonate (CaCO3), and kaolin clay solutions were prepared at four concentrations, respectively. When concentration increased from 0 to 20 ml/L, inactivation of E. coli O157:H7 in humic acid, CaCO3, and kaolin clay solutions decreased from 6 log to 5, 4, and 2 log CFU/ml, respectively after 3 h treatment. Turbidity, UVT-254, water hardness, total suspended solids (TSS), and total organic carbon (TOC) of the solutions were measured. UVT-254 and turbidity had the highest correlation with the inhibition effect of water compounds on photo-disinfection efficacy. A prediction equation was developed with UVT-254 and water hardness as independent variables to predict photo-disinfection efficacy in natural water. E. coli O157:H7 decreased by 1 and 2.5 log CFU/ml in unfiltered and filtered natural creek water samples after treatment. The results from this study showed promise in the use of TiO2 NP-embedded CA film to inactivate pathogens in natural water. HIGHLIGHTS
