Optimization of the photocatalytic degradation process of aromatic organic compounds applied to mangrove sediment

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are part of a class of organic compounds resistant to natural degradation. In this way, heterogeneous photocatalysis becomes useful to degrade persistent organic pollutants, however it can be influenced by environmental variables (i.e.: organic matter) and exp...
