Abstract: The use of Ti3C2 MXene as a photocatalyst for the abatement of pollutants has garnered significant attention due to its unique properties and potential for environmental remediation. Ti3C2 exhibits excellent electrical conductivity, large surface area, and the ability to facilitate charge separation, which are critical for enhancing photocatalytic activity. Recent studies have demonstrated that modifications to Ti3C2, such as nitrogen doping and the formation of heterojunctions with other materials, can significantly improve its photocatalytic performance. Moreover, the integration of Ti3C2 with other photocatalytic materials has been shown to enhance the degradation of various pollutants. In this work we present the study of photocatalytic properties of Ti3C2 coupled with ZnO and ZnO-CeO2 in the abatement of sulfamethozaxole. Samples have been prepared and fully characterized via XRD, SEM and UV-Vis DRS analysis.
