Abstract:
El seleni és un micronutrient essencial pels humans. Té diversos rols en la salut i per tant, el seu consum a nivells òptims és altament beneficial. Tot i així, 500-1000 milions de persones al món pateixen dèficit de seleni, degut als baixos nivells de seleni als sòls del camps de conreu. La biofortificació dels cultius amb fertilitzants rics en seleni és la manera més efectiva de contrarestar la deficiència de seleni. Tot i així, la especiació de seleni és fonamental: les plantes són capaces de transformar el seleni inorgànic del sòl, com els ions selenit i selenat, en seleni orgànic, com el

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) photocatalysis, which can oxidise or reduce organic and inorganic pollutants, is a developing technology for water and wastewater treatment. The current work investigates the photocatalytic reduction of cadmium and selenium species as the presence of these elements in water are of environmental concern. Although TiO2 has been widely used for the photocatalytic process, its light absorption is limited to the UV region of the solar spectrum. Hence, the current project also explores the possibility to deposit cadmium selenide (CdSe) onto TiO2 to extend the photoresponse to

In addition, there is increasing interest in the formation of nano-size semiconductors for niche applications.
