Item Degradación de Ampicilina, Catecol y el colorante naranja II, a partir de residuos de CdS obtenidos de prácticas convencionales de química inorgánica(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2019) Vidal Ruíz, Victor Alfonso; Avila Torres, YennyThe elimination of orange dye, catechol and ampicillin (products present in waste from practical work of organic chemistry and biochemistry), was carried out with cadmium sulfide (CdS). This inorganic material was obtained from of residues of acid- base Pearson's practices in the laboratories of inorganic and analytical chemistry. Cadmium sulfide is a semiconductor with a GAP 2.4-2.6 ; which allows its use as a photocatalyst in the visible region and enhances its application in the degradation of organic matter. An important source of this type of materials are the conventional practices at the laboratory level, where it is possible to obtain residues such as PbS and CdS; which are generally underutilized. In this article, the impure CdS residue was purified and characterized as was reported, previously. Subsequently, organic labs and has obtained the best parameters at pH neutral for the elimination of orange II. This behavior was compared with the transformation of catechol and ampicillin as neutral and zwitterion molecules. H2O2, KI and acetonitrile as solvent, were added in to order to evaluate synergistic effects and establish the role of the semiconductor, (huecos) h+ and OH-. This work is a contribution to the reuse of waste in teaching laboratories, which promote the recirculation water contaminated with this type of organic compounds and allows for the student to design experimental protocols that allow him to use two types of organic and inorganic waste.
