Abstract


Abstract. This research is an experimental study that aims to determine the effectiveness of phenol degradation types using zeolite/TiO2 composites. The zeolite used was the zeolite that has been activated by 6 M hydrochloric acid (HCl). The composition ratio of the zeolite:TiO2 composites used was 3:2. The types of degradation used were zeolite, TiO2, zeolite/TiO2 composites with and without UV radiation with a wavelength of 360 nm. Measurement of the concentration of phenol degradation results using a UV-Vis Spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 270.20 nm. The results obtained showed that the zeolite/TiO2 3:2 composite irradiated by UV light was able to degrade 10 mg/L phenol solution by 98.43%. The photodegradation effectiveness test of zeolite/TiO2 composites using UV light was 37.12% effective compared to zeolite/TiO2 without UV light. Thus the most effective of phenol degradation types was using zeolite/TiO2 composites with UV radiation.
