摘要

Paracetamol (PC) removal from water was experimentally investigated by combining photocatalysis with a peroxydisulfate (PDS) under UV-A irradiation at ambient temperature. TiO2-PC500 immobilized on cellulosic paper (TiO2-PC500-CelulPap), prepared via the sol–gel method, was characterized. The characterization results demonstrated that the properties of TiO2-PC500 were maintained unmodified after immobilization on cellulosic paper. Increasing the PDS concentration from 2 to 10 mM enhanced PC removal from 42 to 60% after 120 min of reaction time, attributed to an increase of the reactive oxygen species formed, such as S2O8·−, ·OH and O2·−. The highest degradation efficiency of PC was obtained at neutral pH (pH = 7). As the initial PC concentration increased from 0.039 to 0.198 mM, the degradation efficiency of PC decreased 39% after 120 min of reaction times. Based on modelling part, the optimal conditions were: 5.7 ≤ pH ≤ 9, 3.362 mM ≤ [PDS] ≤ 10 mM, [PC] = 0.062 mM, and irradiation = 4.78 h, resulting in 98% PC degradation yield.
