AC/TiO2 was synthesized via sol-gel method and characterized. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) based on Central Composite Design (CCD) was applied in optimization of process parameters in photocatalytic degradation of Turquoise blue dye (TBD) under UV light. The optimum conditions are 15.00 mg/L i...
