Integrated photocatalytic adsorbents (IPA) prepared from TiO2 and natural zeolite were applied to amoxicillin (AMX) degradation. The acid-alkali pre-treated zeolite annealed at 300°C under nitrogen resulted in the best degradation of AMX. The superior performance of this IPA material was explained u...
