|
The objective of this study is to delineate removal efficiency of the Linear alkylbenzene sulfonates(LAS) in solution by photocatalytic oxidation as a function of the following different experimental conditions : initial concentration of LAS, concentration, UV wavelength and pH of the solution. It was increased with decreasing initial concentration of LAS and with decreasing pH of the solution. Removal efficiency increased with increasing concentration but was almost the same at concentration of 2 g/L and 3 g/L, i.e., for initial LAS concentration of 50 mg/L. It was removal efficiency was 85% at 150 min in the case of concentration of 0.5 g/L but 100% after 150 min in the case of concentration of 1 g/L, 100% after 110 min in the case of concentration of 2 g/L and 3 g/L. UV wavelength affection on the removal efficiency of LAS decreased in the order of 254, 312 and 365 nm as increasing wavelength. But the removal efficiency of LAS was nearly the same at UV wavelength of 254 nm and 312 nm.
