“…These composites enable the degradation of various pollutants in contaminated waters, particularly through photocatalytic pathways [77][78][79]. Research studies have shown that doping CuO with different metals or combining it with materials such as TiO 2 can enhance photocatalytic activity by effectively reducing the recombination effect of photogenerated electron/hole pairs [80,81]. Moreover, the photocatalytic properties of ciprofloxacin degradation were improved by Zn doping of Cu 2 O nanoparticles prepared by the solvothermal method [82].…”

In recent years, organic pollutants have become a global problem due to their negative impact on human health and the environment. Photocatalysis is one of the most promising methods for the removal of organic pollutants from wastewater, and oxide semiconductor materials have proven to be among the best in this regard. This paper presents the evolution of the development of metal oxide nanostructures (MONs) as photocatalysts for ciprofloxacin degradation. It begins with an overview of the role of these materials in photocatalysis; then, it discusses methods of obtaining them. Then, a detailed review of the most important oxide semiconductors (ZnO, TiO2, CuO, etc.) and alternatives for improving their photocatalytic performance is provided. Finally, a study of the degradation of ciprofloxacin in the presence of oxide semiconductor materials and the main factors affecting photocatalytic degradation is carried out. It is well known that antibiotics (in this case, ciprofloxacin) are toxic and non-biodegradable, which can pose a threat to the environment and human health. Antibiotic residues have several negative impacts, including antibiotic resistance and disruption of photosynthetic processes.
