In degrading bio-recalcitrant compounds the photocatalytic process has proved to be superior to various conventional treatment processes. During the photocatalytic degradation, the transfer of hazardous contaminants from one form to another do not takes place and complete degradation of contaminants takes place. Due to the use of Artificial UV light and Semiconductor as a catalyst, this process is quite. The application of Photocatalytic process at industrial scale is possible in India. So Photocatalysis is attractive and cost-effective option in our country. With varying parameters like pH, irradiation time, catalyst dose and UV light intensity the degradation process is studied. Under the optimum pH of the solution (7.0 pH), catalyst dose of 1.2 g/500ml after 6 hr conditions 97%, 90% and 83% degradation in BOD, COD & Colour was observed.
