“…Photocatalytic process is an advanced oxidation process for water-polluting contaminants, including pharmaceutical molecules, pesticides, recalcitrant organic waste, food additives, personal care products, textile dyes, and other different types of organic pollutants. − At present, conventional methods, including biological and chemical treatments, are very time-consuming and lead to the nonrecovery of homogeneous catalysts used in advanced oxidation processes, respectively. In contrast to such conventional treatments, photocatalysis involves a single-step heterogeneous catalytic system, which can have potential in water purification and degradation of recalcitrant molecules. , Although, a major development for designing the photocatalytic reactor is still required, different types of reactor designs have been reported in the literature, such as shell and tube, corrugated plate, Carberry, slurry bubble column, and falling film slurry reactor designs, − including single and a series of multiple reactor units. , …”
