Over the past few decades, acetaminophen (ACT), a typical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), has gained global usage, positioning itself as one of the most extensively consumed medications. However, the incomplete metabolism of ACT leads to a substantial discharge into the environment, classifying it as an environmental contaminant with detrimental effects on non-target organisms. Various wastewater treatment technologies have been developed for ACT removal to mitigate its potential environmental risk. Particularly, photocatalytic technology has garnered significant attention as it exhibits high efficiency in oxidizing and degrading a wide range of organic pollutants. This comprehensive review aims to systematically examine and discuss the application of photocatalytic technology for the removal of ACT from aqueous environments. Additionally, the study provides a detailed overview of the limitations associated with the photocatalytic degradation of ACT in practical applications, along with effective strategies to address these challenges.
在过去几十年里，对乙酰氨基酚（ACT）作为一种典型的非甾体抗炎药（NSAID），已在全球范围内广泛使用，成为消费最为广泛的药物之一。然而，ACT的不完全代谢导致其大量排放到环境中，使其被归类为对非目标生物有有害影响的环境污染物。为了降低其潜在的环境风险，人们开发了各种废水处理技术来去除ACT。特别是，光催化技术因其在氧化和降解多种有机污染物方面表现出的高效率而备受关注。这篇综述旨在系统地研究和讨论光催化技术在从水环境中去除ACT方面的应用。此外，该研究详细概述了ACT光催化降解在实际应用中存在的局限性，以及应对这些挑战的有效策略。
