Pollution of water from a wide range of organic pollutants is a serious environmental problem. Conventional water treatment technologies are not very effective for reducing the concentration of these pollutants to a desirable level. The aim of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of two technologies in reducing the pollutant concentration of two wastewater samples. Therefore, cross-linked cyclodextrin (CD) polymers were synthesized and their adsorption capacities were evaluated. An emerging oxidation process using doped TiO2 was also evaluated. For both technologies, we Observed a decrease in the total organic carbon (TOC) content due either to the adsorption of pollutants by CD polymers or to the mineralization of pollutants by photocatalysis.
