Pharmaceuticals in the concentration range of hundreds ng/L to μg/L occur wastewater and end up surface water, groundwater agricultural land where they cause various health risks. These pollutants are classified as emerging cannot be efficiently removed by conventional treatment processes. The use nano-enabled photocatalysts removal pharmaceuticals aquatic systems has recently received research attention owing their enhanced properties effectiveness. industrial scale application photocatalytic technology is still limited. A comprehensive review on from real using therefore necessary. This paper reviews literature occurrence, fate, nano-sized strategies wastewater. Modifications through doping, deposition supports, introducing magnetic character enhance efficiency recyclability were discussed. synthetic routes influence physical chemical which can either or inhibit benefits degradation include easy recycling exhibit excellent stability, used for several cycles. Going forward, should focus on: (1) elucidation photodegradation mechanisms, (2) at remove multiple pharmaceutical compounds, (3) regeneration, disposal particularly towards large application, (4) life cycle assessment synthesis (5) lowering cost improving efficiency, (6) investigating toxicity intermediates photocatalyst environment.
