Abstract
In this paper we prepared via different synthetic processes, two ternary systems based on ZnO, CeO2 and Cu2O for the abatement of organic pollutants. The system ZnO/CeO2 was already known to be efficient in the degradation of emergent contaminants, the addition of cuprous oxides allows also to enhance reductive properties to the material thanks to its specific potential. The mixed oxides were characterized via power X Ray Diffraction, UV visible Diffuse Reflectance and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance. The materials obtained through hydrothermal synthesis shown better performances in the abatement of phenol and carbamazepine.
