At present, the traditional ways to deal with phenolic organic pollutants and lignin derivatives are mainly physical adsorption and biodegradation. The main disadvantages of these methods are incomplete treatment and long treatment periods. Although new photocatalytic technology uses clean energy and has mild reaction conditions, it also has the disadvantages of slow reaction speed and incomplete treatment.
