Abstract
In this paper, we present the synthesis, characterization and evaluation of a potential semiconductor obtained from industrial slugde of anodizing industry. The material was characterized using a proton distribution affinity, PDA and conventional techniques like: atomic absorption, free moisture, zero point charge (ZPC), XDR and BET. The material was treated to temperatures between 300 and 1200 °C. It was found that the synthesized oxide has a high concentration of α and γ -alumina which has octaedric structure and a shortage of superficial protons. The absorption and photodegradation of methylene blue show that the alumina can be used like absorbent and photocatalysts.
