The current paper examines the use of Photocatalysis in various wastewater treatment applications, beginning with a brief overview of how industrialization is causing various water threats and how wastewater treatment processes, particularly Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOP ' s), have improved in recent years. Then, we go over the current status of photocatalysis in wastewater clean up,as well as the numerous hurdles that are encountered along the way. The applications of photo catalytic technology in waste water treatment are highlighted ,as well as the most recent efforts to improve photocatalytic materials. A brief explaination of photocatalytic reactor design and system evaluation is also included. Finally, the tactics for boosting research outputs and the future prospects of photocatalysis are discussed.
