  • Methods of making metal-oxides and uses thereof for water treatment and energy applications
    Patent number: 10322948
    Abstract: The disclosure provides relates to compositions and methods for water treatment. It also addresses a method for synthesizing TiO2 (and other metal oxides) with or without dopants. This method enables control over size, phase, morphology and porosity and specific surface area of these materials. The disclosure also provides metal oxide composites that can be used in photocatalysts, photovoltaics, and solar hydrogen applications.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 30, 2017
    Date of Patent: June 18, 2019
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: David Kisailus, Nichola Kinsinger
