Photocatalytic studies emphasize upon the chemical reactions that occur when light and a photocatalyst are present in a chemical reaction. A semiconductor known as a photocatalyst increases the rate of reaction just by being there. Numerous uses for photocatalysis exist, including water purification, self-cleaning, antimicrobial, de-odorizing, air purifying and antifogging. Since photocatalysis is a green chemical route, it is essential in the present times and is the need of the hour.

Abstract:
AbstractPhotocatalysis in building envelopes can reduce air pollution, further providing surfaces with antimicrobial and self-cleaning effects. However, conventional photocatalysts have drawbacks, like environmentally unfriendly industrial production processes, UV-restricted light absorption, and human health concerns. So, this chapter reviewed photocatalysts synthesized following a green route in several research fields, relying on the wide availability of sea waste. The final goal was to assess if the construction sector already encompasses the topic and provide experimental paths to preserve renders with marine-based photocatalysts and enhance their resilience under climate change. The final sample had 64 papers, in which algae, shells, fish waste, and other marine materials were bio-sources. Indoor air pollution was the closest topic to buildings, addressed by three papers but without direct applications, and no papers have tested bio-photocatalysts in façades. Titanium, zinc, and silver were the most common metals combined with the biomaterials. A lack of toxicity and life cycle assessments prevented a comprehensive environmental discussion.

Abstract:
AbstractUtilization of lightweight concrete results in a reduction in the weight of the structure, leading to lower destructive effects of seismic forces on the building. Additionally, in today’s conditions where more efficient energy use is desired, there is an increasing interest in the use of lightweight concrete facade panels due to their superior performance in terms of heat insulation. It is known that pollutants such as COx and NOx adhere to facades over time, causing pollution and visual deterioration. It was reported that materials with photocatalytic properties are used in concrete elements to prevent such issues. In this context, the use of self-cleaning concrete facades containing materials with photocatalytic properties has become more prevalent in recent years. Among the many semiconductor materials used in the production of self-cleaning concrete, it is understood that the use of TiO2 is more widespread due to the various advantages it offers. On the other hand, it was reported that urbanization is increasing, and the volume of construction waste is rapidly growing, particularly after severe earthquakes. In this context, promoting the use of recycled concrete waste and efficiently disposing of construction and demolition waste are of great importance for the European Green Deal. This study examines the effect of using recycled concrete aggregate on the self-cleaning properties of lightweight concrete mixtures (SCLWC) compressive and flexural strength performance. For this purpose, an SCLWC containing 1% TiO2 and 100% pumice aggregate was prepared. By substituting recycled concrete aggregate with pumice aggregate at 25% and 50% rates, two different SCLWCs with self-cleaning properties were produced. The compressive strength and flexural strength performances of the produced mixtures were examined. It was observed that the increase in pumice aggregate content caused a decrease in both strength performances. It was observed that the increase in pumice aggregate content caused a decrease of up to 53% and 7% in compressive and flexural strength performance, respectively.

Abstract:
Ag-TiO2 and Ag-TiO2/reduced graphene oxide nanopowders were deposited onto 100% cotton fabrics via electrostatic spraying method. The surface of cotton fabrics was pre-treated by plasma at atmospheric pressure using argon and nitrogen mixture. The as-prepared cotton fabrics were characterized in terms of structural and optical properties by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and optical reflectance measurements. The photocatalytic self-cleaning ability of Ag-TiO2 and Ag-TiO2/reduced graphene oxide coated cotton fabrics was evaluated by the photo-discoloration of methylene blue and berries juice stains, u
