Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze the removal of carbamazepine from water using the ZnO/In2O3 nanophotocatalyst. Based on the obtained results of photodegradation of carbamazepine, it can be concluded that the applied catalytic nanomaterial has the potential for photodegradation of the selected pharmaceutical.
