Abstract
A process is disclosed comprising, providing a source of graphene, providing a particulate material, dispersing a mixture of the source of graphene and the particulate material in a first dispersion fluid to form a dispersion mixture, and providing a source of a base in the first dispersion fluid, thereby causing the source of graphene and particulate material in the dispersion mixture to interact forming a composite. The particulate material is preferably titanium dioxide comprising anatase and/or rutile which provides an effective photocatalytic composite. Also disclosed is apparatus to remove pollutants from fluids using the photocatalytically active material.
