Many studies about photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) have been carried out in laboratories. They use an inert test chamber with ideal indoor conditions: a low volume, a controlled temperature and humidity, and a constant injection of one to five specific gases. The principal aim of this study was to implement, in a real test room (TR) of an experimental house, a titanium dioxide (TiO2) layer to quantify its efficiency.

Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) tests have been carried out for toluene adsorbed on the TiO2/ACFcatalyst in an environmental condition controlled chamber. TiO2/ACF catalyst was made andcharacterized by N2 adsorption isotherm for pore structure and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) formorphology respectively.
