Summary
Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) is a process that uses a catalyst, typically titanium dioxide, and ultraviolet light to break down pollutants into water, carbon dioxide and detritus.
1
The UV light provides the energy that allows the catalyst to work, converting water in the air into a form that turns molecules of pollution into more harmless substances.
2
This process has the advantage of completely transforming the harmful chemicals and effectively destroying them, rather than simply trapping pollutants.
2
However, it also produces tiny amounts of ozone, a toxic air pollutant.
