Abstract The photocatalytic oxidation of Rhodamine B (RhB) was studied using immobilized TiO₂ and rotating disk photocatalytic reactor. Immobilized TiO₂ onto the surface of the aluminum plate was employed as the photocatalyst and two 20 W germicidal lamps and two 20 W UV-BLB lamps were used as the light source and the reactor volume was 1.0 L. The effects of parameters such as the number of rotating disk, rpm of rotating disk, the number of coating, H2O2 and photo-Fenton amounts, and the concentrations of anions and cations (NO₃^- , SO₄^(2-), C1^-, Ca^(2+), Zn^(2+), Na^+) were examined.
