The photocatalysts were characterized using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DR-UV-Vis), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The performance for sulfur removal was carried out using model oil containing 100 ppm S (from dibenzothiophene). The highly dispersed Cu-Fe/TiO2 photocatalyst displayed mainly spherical shaped particles. The best performing photocatalyst was 0.8wt Cu-Fe loading and calcined at 400°C (0.8wt400) giving 18 sulfur removal. The band gap for 0.8wt400 was lowered to 2.96 eV compared to 3.21 eV for TiO2 © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. %Z cited By 1; Conference of 2012 International Conference on Advanced Material and Manufacturing Science, ICAMMS 2012 ; Conference Date: 20 December 2012 Through 21 December 2012; Conference Code:103206
