The subject of the invention is a flow reactor designed for purifying water contaminated with organic and inorganic substances, using combined photocatalysis and adsorption mechanisms. The reactor has a modular design that allows for the optimisation of purification processes through the use of a photocatalytic and adsorption section in a single system.
The invention allows for the effective removal of organic and inorganic contaminants from water, including pesticides, pharmaceuticals, heavy metals and microorganisms.
Its greatest advantages include:
-multifunctionality,
-modularity: the ability to freely arrange and configure sections lighting efficiency, which increases the effectiveness of photocatalysis;
-cost-effectiveness: the use of PES-based composite materials in the form of granules allows for easy regeneration and replacement.
