Abstract
Titanium dioxide nanotubes were synthesised using industrial rutile pigments under the optimum conditions selected. Physicochemical properties and the catalytic activity of the former were examined. As shown, oxidation of sulphur compounds of diesel fraction in the presence of titanium dioxide nanotube-based catalysts allows simple and efficient treatment of oil products.
