Electrodeposited manganese oxides as efficient photocatalyst for the degradation of tetracycline antibiotics pollutant

One of the important environmental challenges of the 21st century is the effective removal of pollutants from the aquatic environment. In this study, electrodeposited manganese oxides (MnyOx) films were applied as visible-light-driven photocatalyst for the removal and mineralization of Tetracycline...
