The sonophotodegradation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) in a homogeneous aqueous system was investigated. The effectiveness of sonolytic, photolytic and sonophotolytic oxidation processes in the degradation of aqueous solutions of TCP was investigated by applying ultrasonic waves or ultraviolet radi...
