Abstract :

In this study the application of ZnO nanoparticles to UV photocatalytic degradation of nonionic surfactantTriton X-100 in aqueous media was investigated. The affecting factors on the photodegradation such as TritonX-100 initial concentration, nanocatalyst weight, pH, temperature and other parameters were studied anddescribed in details. The degradation rate was found to be strongly influenced by all the above parameters .Theoptimized conditions for maximum amount of degradation were also determined Results showed that thephotocatalytic degradation process using UV light as an irradiation source, and Nanoparticles of ZnO as aphotocatalyst, was applicable for the degradation of Triton X-100 in aqueous solution and wastewater samples.
