Abstract
Some of organic materials such as antibiotics are hazardous contaminants in the aquatic environment because of their adverse effects on aquatic life, environment, and humans. In this work, a batch reactor of ultraviolet (UV) light and peroxydisulfate were studied for the degradation of tylosin as a model antibiotic in water. The effect of different parameters such as UV irradiation, peroxydisulfate concentration, antibiotic concentration, and pH on removal of tylosin was investigated carefully. No significant destruction was observed using separate UV illumination. More than 90% removal occurred when peroxydisulfate was added to the solution in optimum levels of tylosin and peroxydisulfate concentration.
