Active tiles are able to purify water: the photocatalytic effect of TiO2 makes them efficient against pollutants and organic compounds, such as drugs.
Aspirin: model molecule related to the pollution of rivers.
KILN
The graph shows the aspirin degradation in contaminated water using Active tiles under irradiation by UV light.
