Fe 2 O 3 and/or Al 2 O 3 were supported on mesoporous SBA-15 by wet impregnation and calcinations with AlCl 3 and FeCl 3 as the metal precursor and were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) of adsorbed pyridine. Fe 2 O 3 /Al 2 O 3 @SBA-15 was found to be highly effective for the mineralization of ibuprofen aqueous solution with ozone. The characterization studies showed that Al−O−Si was formed by the substitution of Al 3+
