The photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ modified by Pt or Au deposition under UV-Vis and visible irradiation was evaluated in the phenol and methyl orange photodegradation reactions. It was found that Au or Pt deposition significantly improves the TiO₂photoactivity under both UV-Vis and visible irradiation.
