Reviewing The Degradation Of Environmental Pollution In Cement Concrete Structures Using Nano-titanium Dioxide



Authors : Raj Pushap . Singh Navdeep . Singh S P .

Abstract

The rising levels of pollution globally affect cement concrete structures and historical monuments by making them fade, stained, and dull due to settling of dust particles. Titanium Dioxide (NT) is a naturally occurred photocatalytic material when used with construction materials (CM), offers benefits such as environmental pollution degradation and self-cleaning action. Moreover, its application supplements in enacting the original appearance of the structure for longer times. The main aim of this review study is to summarize the current information available primarily on ‘environmental pollution degradation and self-cleaning effect’. The standard tools for effective summarization of existing data like a) PRISMA analysis, b) VOSviewer, and c) Citespace were used. Further, the major research gaps, environmental impacts, concept of sustainability in relation to utilization of NT and future trends are incorporated. This review successfully concludes the potential application of NT in cement concrete structures for possible reduction of environmental pollution.
