Claims26
A photocatalytic reactor comprising:
- a lid;
- a gas tight seal;
- prism shaped cavity;
- a glass enclosure;
- and
- at least one of a photocatalyst solution, gel, powder, film or suspension,
- wherein the at least one of the photocatalyst solution, gel, powder, film or suspension is placed inside the prism shaped cavity,
- wherein the lid is disposed above the glass enclosure with the gas tight seal disposed between the lid and the glass enclosure to ensure that the photocatalytic reactor is gas-tight,
- wherein the gas tight seal maintains the pressures within the photocatalytic reactor in a range of approximately 1-759 mmHg.
