Abstract
The photochemical degradation of two antibiotics, enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin hydrochloride, was preliminarily studied under irradiation with a high-pressure mercury lamp (HMPL) in this paper. The influence of initial concentration of antibiotics, Fe (Ⅲ) and platymonas subcordiformis on the degradation efficiency of antibiotics were investigated. The results suggested that in the presence of P. subcordiformis, the degradation efficiency of enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin hydrochloride were 85.0% and 84.2% in aqueous solutions underwent photodegradation under HMPL irradiation, respectively. Moreover, the lower initial concentration of antibiotics improved photodegradation rate of antibiotics.
