Degradation of Pesticides Using Semiconducting and Tetrapyrrolic Macrocyclic Photocatalysts-A Concise Review.

Exposure to pesticides is inevitable in modern times, and their environmental presence is strongly associated to the development of various malignancies. This challenge has prompted an increased interest in finding more sustainable ways of degrading pesticides. Advanced oxidation processes in particular appear as highly advantageous, due to their ability of selectively removing chemical entities form wastewaters.
