Advanced oxidation process, Titanium dioxide, Textile effluentAbstract
An effluent loaded with chemicals, dyes, and surfactants has been a problem for the textile industry. An effective treatment is needed to degrade these compounds so that they can be disposed of as required by law. Heterogeneous photocatalysis is one of the promising treatments for this effluent. This study aimed to develop a systematic review using the PRISMA methodology to select articles from the Scopus and Web of Science platforms. 26 articles were selected that fit the research. With the help of the VOSviewer software, maps were created where the main co-authors, countries developing research, and the main keywords used could be identified. In these articles that were found, the various applications of heterogeneous photocatalysis in the treatment of these industrial effluents were observed. It was concluded that the correct disposal of effluent has been a worldwide concern, and from this perspective, new test studies are being developed.
