Abstract
Water pollution gained worldwide attention due to the severity of the concern where many places of the world are going through
the drought and groundwater pollution. Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs). PPCPs are the unadorned and
noxious pollutants, although water purification processes by various techniques as bioremediation, phytoremediation, conventional
wastewater treatment etc. are taking place. For PPCPs, there are no specific method is discovered yet where convention treatment
is found inappropriate for the same. This research will lead the PPCPs removal from the industrial wastewater, which comprises the
photo catalysis as well as absorbent method. Photo catalysis, an emerging concept is trusted as effective treatment methods for the
removal and determination of PPCPs from wastewater treatment because of the efficiency and feasibility. Furthermore, a detailed
studyis required on blending other techniques with the photo catalysis like Advance Oxidation Process (AOP)and absorbent method.
This research will focus on the thorough purification of PPCPs from wastewater through Photo-catalysis and Advance Oxidation
Process (AOP) [1,2]..
