Photocatalytic removal of pollution
DTOX products use photocatalytic action to removepollutantspresentinoutdoorairandbreakdownorganicpollution.They contain titanium dioxide (TiO2) which acts as acatalyst.Under the actionofUV light, titaniumdioxideisactivated.Itbreaksdownmostpollutantsandorganiccontaminationwhichcausesgrimeonbuildings:industrialpollution, exhaust fumes, moss, algae, mould, oils andgreases,etc.Theseorganicpollutantsarethenconvertedintowatervapourandcarbondioxide.
from the properties of tio2, and from internationally conducted laboratory tests, the evidence suggests that the following breakdown percentages can be achieved: 95% of noX, 85% of vocs, 90% of traditional pollutants (acetone, acetaldehyde, toluene, heptane).

PHotocatalYsis, a 100% natural Process
Photocatalysis is a totally natural process inwhich a substance, the photocatalyst, initiatesa chemical reactionwhen exposed to light. Thecatalystbreaksmatterdownundertheactionoflightradiation.This process resembles plant photocatalysis, inwhich chlorophyll captures sunlight to convertwaterandcarbondioxideintooxygenandglucose.Photocatalysisthereforeacceleratestheoxidationprocess, causing pollutants to be broken downmorerapidly.
