Photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin by synthesized TiO2 nanoparticles on montmorillonite: Effect of operation parameters and artificial neural network modeling

Magnetic nano-biocomposite CuFe2 O4 @methylcellulose (MC) prepared as a new nano-photocatalyst for degradation of ciprofloxacin from aqueous solution

“…Other reasons can be the production of by-products during the process. These by-products compete with the initial concentration of antibiotics in contact with the catalyst, which leads to a decrease in the CIP degradation (35,36). Also, by increasing the initial concentration of antibiotics, more photons are absorbed by CIP and are less involved in photocatalytic process (34), which is consistent with the results of the study of Sayed et al (37).…”

Organophilic bentonites obtained by microwave heating as adsorbents for anionic dyes

“…Isomorphic substitution of Al 3+ by Mg 2+ in the octahedral sheet gives an overall negative charge, which is counterbalanced by cations located in the interlayer space (Bergaya et al, 2011;Jaber, et.al., 2014). Furthermore, bentonites are abundant, easy to handle, biocompatible, and non-toxic and presents other properties as thermal stability, nanoscale porous structure, appropriate surface morphology, chemical stability (Fatimah et al, 2011;Hassane et al, 2015;Sahin et al, 2015;Elfadl et al, 2017).…”

Construction of stable core–shell imprinted Ag-(poly-o-phenylenediamine)/CoFe2O4 photocatalyst endowed with the specific recognition capability for selective photodegradation of ciprofloxacin

“…[6][7][8][9] Therefore, nding a simple, quick and effective method to remove CIP residues from the water environment is of great importance. [10][11][12][13] In this context, photocatalysis, as a green technology which uses light energy and degrades pollutants to non-toxic harmless substances, has aroused great interest among many researchers. [14][15][16][17][18] Recently, TiO 2 , CdS, ZnO and other materials have been extensively studied and widely used as photocatalysts.…”
