Antibiotic residues have become serious health concerns due to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The treatment antibiotic pollutants in wastewater is necessary for reducing issue resistance. In this work, metal oxide photocatalyst titanium dioxide (TiO2) was evaluated removal tetracycline (TC-A) and deactivation E. coli bacteria (E-B) from wastewater. Based on oxidation process, TiO2 can successfully degrade TC-A with an efficiency up 96.4%. It also employed coli, completely inactivating within 30 min. Moreover, after five cycles reuse, demonstrated high efficiencies over 80% 95% E-B, respectively. Finally, proposed mechanism using presented. This work provides a simple method removing deactivating

Effective removal of carbofuran pesticide in wastewater using silver-doped TiO ₂ photocatalyst

Journal of Environmental Science and Health Part B, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown, С. 1 - 10

Опубликована: Янв. 31, 2025

This study presents effective methods for utilizing the TiO2 photocatalyst in environmental remediation, with a particular focus on removal of carbofuran pesticide (CBFP) from wastewater. Silver (Ag) was selected as potential dopant to improve optical properties well electron-hole pair separation efficiency TiO2. Ag-doped (Ag-TiO2) effectively decomposed 92.8% CBFP under solar light, which significantly higher than that (21.3%). Ag-TiO2 also exhibited good reusability degradation, reduction less 3% after three cycles. In practical applications, successfully degraded 89.3% wastewater and 98.7% surface water. The findings this work bring an method removing pollutants using photocatalyst.

Photocatalytic oxidation of antibiotic residue and organic dye pollutant using noble metal-doped ZnO: Reducing environmental and health risks

Journal of Environmental Science and Health Part B, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown, С. 1 - 9

Опубликована: Апрель 8, 2025

Water pollution associated with antibiotic residues and colored organic pollutants leads to various potential risks human health the environment. This work develops an economical method that is suitable for removing both from water. The oxidation process based on a noble metal (Ag)-doped zinc oxide photocatalyst (Ag-ZnO) was selected as strategy investigation. Besides, tetracycline (A-Tc) methylene blue-colored (D-Mb) were target contaminants. With light assistance, Ag-ZnO showed significantly improved degradation efficiency A-Tc D-Mb at 90.6 97.3%, respectively. advantages of are also confirmed by faster rate constants, which more than twice fast those undoped sample. mineralization shows 93.5% 98.7% carbon removed solutions, result suggests being converted into inorganic substances. In addition, benefits using enhance safety, reduce negative effects environment, decrease treatment costs discussed.

Improved photocatalytic decomposition of carbaryl pesticide in wastewater using ZnO nanorods

Journal of Environmental Science and Health Part B, Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown, С. 1 - 9

Опубликована: Ноя. 11, 2024

This study explores the enhanced photocatalytic performance of ZnO nanorods (ZnO-R) for degrading carbaryl pesticide (CB) in wastewater. For comparison, commercial (ZnO-C) was used to evaluate differences decomposition CB between ZnO-R and ZnO-C. The results regarding material properties demonstrated that enhances removal due its unique rod shape, which extends light absorption improves electron-hole separation. rates from aqueous solution using ZnO-C were 98.2% 87.3%, respectively. Besides, presence other pesticides had a more negative impact on than inorganic contaminants. degradation wastewater 99.8%, 68.2%, 21.7% under UV, solar, visible light, In addition, mechanism UV proposed based n-type photocatalysis process. work provides method selecting suitable type photocatalyst control residue pollutants are commonly found agricultural activities.
