In this work, we have studied the Photocatalytic degradation of the omeprazole. The experiments were carried out on a PFR lighted with the sunlight and TiO2 was used as photocatalyst. The tests confirmed the degradation of the molecule of the omeprazole. The kinetics data follow a pseudo-first order model.
