“…43 The efficiencies of the catalysts were determined by a reported method, 44,45 eqn (1):
where η represents the % removal efficiency and C 0 and C are the initial and final concentrations. Similarly, the kinetics of the degradation reactions was measured via eqn (2) 46,47
where C 0 = initial concentration, C = concentration after reaction at time t , and k = rate constant. The graph is plotted between ln C / C 0 vs. time (min) for the determination of the reaction constant for the degradation reaction.…”
