Matias, Maria Leonor; Pimentel, Ana; Reis Machado, Ana S.; Rodrigues, Joana; Fernandes, Auguste; Monteiro, Teresa; Almeida Carvalho, PatríciaPublisher Copyright: © 2025 RSC.; Pharmaceutical substances present in soils and water supplies pose a significant risk to the ecosystem. Solar light-driven photocatalysis with titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanophotocatalysts has been widely explored for the degradation of these substances in aquatic resources. However, the lack of reported sustainable methods to produce TiO2 nanophotocatalysts and the challenges ass...
