Polymeric nanocomposite materials for photocatalytic detoxification of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in aquatic environments-A review

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a known class of persistent and ubiquitous contaminants not only found in sediments but also associated with coastal areas and waters of urbanized estuaries. Due to their hydrophobic nature, PAHs tend to accumulate in the aquatic sediments, leading to bioa...
