【 摘 要 】

Propylparaben (PP) is catagorized as endocrine disrupting compounds and is found to be present in urban wastewater comparatively at high concentrations. In the present work, propylparaben was degraded photo-catalytically by optimizing different process parameters such as initial concentration of propylparaben (25mgL-1to 100 mgL-1), pH of the feed phase and concentration of photocatalyst TiO2(50 mgL-1to 200 mgL-1). Finally PP degraded and converted to CO2and H2O and the degradation was found to follow the first order kinetics.
