Abstract:
1. A reactor for the photocatalytic treatment of liquid or gaseous streams, the reactor comprising a tube through which the stream to be treated flows, wherein at least one light source, at least one flat means M 1 including at least one photocatalytically active material, and at least one flat means M 2 reflecting light radiated by the at least one light source are disposed within the tube, and wherein the reflecting surface of the at least one flat means M 2 and an inner wall of the tube are at an angle of 5 to 85°, such that light radiated from the at least one light source is reflected by the at least one means M 2 onto the photocatalytically active material, and wherein the angle between the reflecting surface of the at least one flat means M 1 and the corresponding at least one flat means M 2 is 5 to 85°.
