Photocatalysis process of wastewater that consists of biodegradable pollutants has a significant influence on the ecology system, especially the water resources. Photocatalysis is a harmless process that mineralizes pollutants with the help of highly oxidizing free radicals (•OH and O2•-), thus conv...
