Abstract
ABSTRACTWater pollution, which is produced especially by pharmaceutical waste and organic dyes that are discharged into waterbodies without being properly treated, is now becoming a greater hazard to aquatic species and ecosystems. Various approaches have previously been used to degrade organic dyes and pharmaceutical waste. Advanced oxidation method, notably titanium dioxide doped with semiconductors like silver, has significant advantages over conventional systems. The photocatalytic reaction mechanism is briefly explored. The effectiveness of silver-doped titanium dioxide for the demineralisation of medicines as well as for different types of dyes has been reviewed along with various factors affecting photocatalytic reactions.KEYWORDS: Photocatalysispharmaceuticalsazo dyessemiconductorsdoping Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).
期刊介绍：
International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry comprises original research on all aspects of analytical work related to environmental problems. This includes analysis of organic, inorganic and radioactive pollutants in air, water, sediments and biota; and determination of harmful substances, including analytical methods for the investigation of chemical or metabolic breakdown patterns in the environment and in biological samples.
The journal also covers the development of new analytical methods or improvement of existing ones useful for the control and investigation of pollutants or trace amounts of naturally occurring active chemicals in all environmental compartments. Development, modification and automation of instruments and techniques with potential in environment sciences are also part of the journal.
Case studies are also considered, particularly for areas where information is scarce or lacking, providing that reported data is significant and representative, either spatially or temporally, and quality assured. Owing to the interdisciplinary nature of this journal, it will also include topics of interest to researchers in the fields of medical science (health sciences), toxicology, forensic sciences, oceanography, food sciences, biological sciences and other fields that, in one way or another, contribute to the knowledge of our environment and have to make use of analytical chemistry for this purpose.
