Photocatalytic membrane technologies for removal of recalcitrant pollutants

Massive grow of population has led to increase in waste production not only from domestic activities but also industries, that cause an increase of emerging contaminants in wastewater and water bodies. Recalcitrant pollutants like dyes and drugs, including endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) becam...
