This review summarizes recent advances in photocatalytic treatment of wastewater, focusing on modification strategies and operational conditions to enhance treatment efficiency and remove organic contaminants. It also critically discusses different types of photocatalysts and key factors influencing their performance, providing recommendations for future research.
This review compiles recent advances and challenges on photocatalytic treatment of wastewater using nanoparticles, nanocomposites, and polymer nanocomposites as photocatalyst. The review provides an overview of the fundamental principles of photocatalytic treatment along the recent advances on photocatalytic treatment, especially on the modification strategies and operational conditions to enhance treatment efficiency and removal of recalcitrant organic contaminants. The different types of photocatalysts along the key factors influencing their performance are also critically discussed and recommendations for future research are provided.
