Water Depollution and Photo-Detoxification by Means of TiO<sub>2</sub>: Fluoroquinolone Antibiotics as a Case Study

Photocatalysis by semiconductors is considered one of the most promising advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) and TiO<sub>2</sub> is the most well-studied material for the removal of contaminants from the aquatic system. Over the last 20 years, pharmaceuticals have been the most investiga...
