Abstract
Methods for embedding photocatalytic titanium dioxide in asphalt surfaces to reduce pollutants via photocatalytic reactions are provided herein. One method includes applying an amount of an asphalt surface treatment compound to an upper surface of the asphalt surface, the asphalt surface treatment compound including a mixture of a liquid carrier compound with a titanium dioxide (TiO2) photocatalyst.
Claims13
A method for treating an asphalt surface, the method comprising:
- applying an amount of an asphalt surface treatment compound to an upper surface of the asphalt surface, the asphalt surface treatment compound comprising a mixture of a liquid carrier compound with a titanium dioxide (TiO2) photocatalyst.
A method, comprising:
- applying a photocatalytic compound to an asphalt surface, wherein the photocatalytic compound is capable of uniformly penetrating the asphalt surface down to a depth of at least a quarter of an inch relative to an upper surface of the asphalt surface.
An asphalt surface treatment compound, comprising:
- an amount of a liquid carrier compound mixed with an amount of a titanium dioxide (TiO2) photocatalyst, wherein the liquid carrier compound is capable of penetrating an asphalt surface down to a depth of at least a quarter of an inch relative to an upper surface of the asphalt surface.
