PHOTOCATALYTIC DEGRADATION OF PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOUNDS IN WASTEWATER USING Mn NANOPARTICLE

Now a days, the current research develops on the field of early diagnosis and therapeutic applications. They focused on the orientation of target molecule and the active site of the durg design. The drug molecule synthesized by various industries and utilization in every health centres. For each production of the drug molecules, the solid waste and the effluent wastes were directly discharged into the water bodies. The above limitation of the level leads to the mutation in the protein and the DNA. The significance of the work focused on the treatment of pharmaceutical effluents by photocatalytic degradation using manganese nanoparticle. The synthesis of Mn nanoparticle was synthesized by the chemical reduction method and it was characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and the morphology of the material was seen by field emission microscope. The photocatalytic activity of the pharmaceutical product was studied by normal and the photocatalytic condition. The photcatalytic study was carried by varying the catalyst loading and the time of degradation. The real sample was studied in real pharmaceutical products.
