Photocatalytic oxidation of acetaminophen (ACT) using potassium peroxodisulfate (K2S2O8)-modified TiO2 photocatalyst

Photocatalytic oxidation of acetaminophen (ACT) using potassium peroxodisulfate (K2S2O8)-modified TiO2 photocatalyst

Acetaminophen (ACT) is a globally prescribed analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug. In recent years, traces of unaltered ACT have been detected in conventional wastewater treatment effluent discharge. In this study, K2S2O8-modified TiO2 photocatalyst was synthesized and used to degrade ACT in aqueous...
