The photodegradation of m-cresol was carried out under visible light (46% sunlight) by ZnO as photocatalyst. To measure the efficiency of photodegradation, the different variables studied included amount of photocatalyst, concentration of m-cresol and pH. The maximum amount of photocatalyst and conc...
