Abstract

ABSTRACTWater pollution by organic pollutants is an ever-increasing problem for the global concerns. Some recently published papers are reviewed and summarized with the focus being on the photocatalytic oxidation of tetracycline in wastewater effluent. In this review, the effects of various operating parameters on the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline are presented. Recent findings suggested that type of photocatalyst and composition, initial substrate concentration, amount of catalyst, pH of the reaction medium, ionic components in water, solvent types, and oxidizing agents/electron acceptors can play an important role on the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline.
