| Abstract | Synthesis of hydrocalumite-TiO2 hybrid systems and their use in photodegradation of ibuprofen is reported for the first time. Hydrocalumite was prepared with Al3+ recovered from an aluminum slag (circular economy), TiO2 was deposited on hydrocalumite by hydrolysis of titanium(IV) isopropoxide, and the solids thus obtained were calcined at 400 and 750 degrees C. The solid calcined at 400 degrees C was essentially amorphous, showing the presence of calcite due to the fixation of atmospheric CO2, while the solid calcined at 750 degrees C was composed of mayenite, perovskite and rutile. The calcined solids were used for catalytic degradation of ibuprofen (50 ppm in aqueous solutions) under UV irradiation, obtaining better results than when using commercial TiO2-P25 from Degussa. Under the specific conditions used, the degradation took place in the initial steps of the process, mainly giving rise to species with higher molecular mass than initial ibuprofen. |
