A chemometric study on the TiO2-photocatalytic degradation of nitrilotri acetic acid (NTA) in aqueous media under UV radiation has been carried out taking into account the multiple variables that take part in the system. To save redundant number of experiments, the system has been managed under chemometric techniques for several variables as NTA and TiO2 concentrations, pH and irradiation time. Multiple-way analysis of the variance (MANOVA) has been applied to find the statistically significant variables. An artificial neural network (ANN) has been used to build an empirical model of the system. All measurements have been driven under experimental designs: a full-factorial design (FFD) was used to analyze significant factors through MANOVA, and a Doehlert design, which was modified by spatial rotation, was applied in order to have a satisfactory number of levels for the factor time to be able to train the ANN. The study allows the knowledge and prediction of the behavior of the system as well as to work out kinetic parameters and to optimize their variables. The results of kinetic parameters obtained with the neural network agreed with independent experimental results, confirming a Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic regime. The difference between NTA and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), which has been previously studied, is also established. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
