Integrated adsorption-photocatalytic degradation of chicken processing wastewater using powdered activated carbon-supported graphitic carbon nitride

Due to the expansion of agricultural sector, a massive volume of chicken processing wastewater has been produced and the conventional technologies are ineffective to remove organic and inorganic compounds. Thus, this work investigates the performance for the adsorption-photocatalytic degradation of...
