Polyoxometallates as effective photocatalysts in water purification from pesticides

Polyoxometallates (POM), i.e., metal oxide clusters of mainly tungsten are effective homogeneous photocatalysts for the mineralization of organic pollutants. POM are, at least, as effective as the well studied TiO2. OH⋅radicals formed by the reaction of the photo-excited polyoxometallates with H2O,...
