Abstract
During the last decade the use of titanium dioxide has been the focus of water purification studies for photocatalytic degradation of organic compounds. However, the possible use of this technology for water disinfec­tion has been essentially unexplored. In our study U.V. black light (365 nm) at 5.5 mW cm
