Abstract

The inadequate existence of practical techniques for water purification poses a prominent and widespread global environmental challenge. This study aims to clarify the efficacy of xanthan application in the photocatalytic removal of nadolol, pindolol, and cefoperazone from water reservoirs. Under the influence of a simulated solar light source, xanthan exhibited significant degradation rates for pindolol (77%) and cefoperazone (91%). In contrast, nadolol's degradation efficiency was notably lower (10%). These findings suggest that the molecular structure can substantially influence the efficiency of the purification process. Computational analyses were conducted to gain a more profound understanding of the implications of molecular structure.

光催化应用细菌衍生生物聚合物去除水中的药物污染物

水净化实用技术的不足构成了一个突出而广泛的全球环境挑战。本研究旨在阐明黄原胶在光催化去除水库中的纳多洛尔、平度洛尔和头孢哌酮中的应用效果。在模拟太阳光源的影响下，黄原胶对平度洛尔（77%）和头孢哌酮（91%）有显著的降解率。相比之下，纳多洛尔的降解效率明显较低（10%）。这些发现表明，分子结构会对纯化过程的效率产生重大影响。为了更深入地了解分子结构的影响，我们进行了计算分析。
