## Abstract The photocatalytic and photochemical degradations (PCD) of aniline using concentrated solar radiation were studied. The photochemical reaction takes place on the surface of the catalyst material. Therefore, the adsorption behavior of aniline on the catalyst was also studied. The rates o

Abstract
In this work photocatalytic degradation of chlorobenzene has been studied using solar and artificial UV radiations. The effect of pH and the presence of different anions on the degradation of chlorobenzene has been studied for both cases. Chlorobenzene has been found to be a strongly adsorbing and hence rapidly degrading species when subjected to photocatalysis. The effect of pH in the range of 3โ10 and the presence of different anions at a concentration of 0.1 mol dm^โ3^ on the adsorption was studied. Both pH and the presence of anions affect adsorption and the degradation but the overall effect is negligible (<5%). Copyright ยฉ 2004 Society of Chemical Industry
