Abstract

There is a growing interest in applying titanium dioxide (TiO₂) photocatalysis to eradicate microorganisms from contaminated surfaces, water and air. In this chapter, a background of TiO₂ structure and properties in photocatalysis is presented. Issues concerning the effects of photoactivated TiO₂ on a wide range of microorganisms have been highlighted.
