Doctor of Philosophy<br>Department of Chemistry<br>Kenneth J. Klabunde<br>Solar energy driven catalytic systems have gained popularity in environmental remediation recently. Various photocatalytic systems have been reported in this regard and most of the photocatalysts are based on well-known semiconducting material, Titanium Dioxide, while some are based on other materials such as Silicon Dioxide and various Zeolites. However, in titania based photocatalysts, titania is actively involved in the catalytic mechanism by absorbing light and generating exitons. Because of this vast popularity of t

The study showed that an extraction protocol based on acetonitrile as dispersive solvent and C2H2Cl2 as ex
