The discharge of dyes in the textile industry leads to several hazardous effects on the environment. One of the most effective methods on treating dye-contaminated wastewater is photocatalytic degradation. TiO 2 has been widely used as a photocatalyst for wastewater treatment. Since the light absorption of TiO 2 is in the UV light range, however, doping of TiO 2 with a non-metal or metal element is needed to improve its absorption in the visible light range. In this study, TiO 2 photocatalyst was doped with carbon using sucrose as a carbon+e at ratios of 0.75:1 and 1:1. The surface area of TiO 2 after doping with carbon improved to two times the TiO 2 surface area. Additionally, the band gap energy of TiO 2 was successfully reduced to 2.38 eV after doping with carbon. In order to avoid the secondary pollutant problems, the carbon-doped TiO 2 was then immobilized with polyamide fibers at 1wt%, 2wt % and 3wt% to facilitate recollection of the photocatalyst. A photodegradation test was performed by degrading methylene blue under visible light irradiation using 70W halogen lamps with a total of 5 hours of time interval readings. The highest percentage degradation was recorded at 82.67% using immobilized 2wt% 1:1 carbon-doped TiO 2 in polyamide fibers.
