Metal components and nanoparticles are used to develop new heterogeneous photocatalysts with desired properties both in laboratory and industrial scale. In addition to the appropriate mechanical and physical properties that newly developed materials should present to allow their use in the areas of interest, the potential impact that they represent for the human health and the environment is another critical factor that should be considered before their implementation. We assessed the toxicity of 14 different metals and nanomaterials. Based upon the literature survey, the inert or least toxic metals to human health and environment from the selected materials include Tin, Nickel, Aluminium and Titanium dioxide when used in pure composition. Metals such as Zinc, Iron and Copper becomes toxic after a certain concentration. The only toxic metal from the selected components was Antimony, which exerts toxic effect even at low concentration. It should also be noted that toxicity of metals depends upon duration, dosage of exposure, the chemical combination or susceptibility. The choice of nanoparticles for photocatalyst with less toxicity include gold and iron carbide while toxicity towards human health was observed for ruthenium oxide, titanium dioxide and manganese nanoparticle. It should also be noted that toxicity of nanoparticles has conflicting data since size, shape and functionalization are the main factor in determining the toxicity of nanoparticles rather than the chemical composition. The present review and recommendations will help to design safer photocatalysts |
