Abstract
Pollution of water bodies is a significant issue in modern society, with increased concentrations of organic pollutants rendering standard water treatment techniques insufficient to meet legal water quality standards. To reduce ecological pressure and mitigate the toxicity of these pollutants, it is necessary to oxidize and transform them into non-hazardous forms. Advanced oxidation processes, particularly photocatalysis, have gained prominence for this purpose. Photocatalysis enables the complete conversion of organic matter into carbon dioxide and water. Optimizing process parameters can further enhance the efficiency of photocatalysis in industrial wastewater treatment plants.Keywords
