      <dc:description>This research delves deeply into the intricate degradation kinetics of triclosan, employing&#xd;
two distinct methodologies: UV and simulated solar irradiation. Through a comprehensive comparative&#xd;
analysis, the study endeavors to elucidate the efficacy of these techniques, aiming to shed&#xd;
light on their respective methodological strengths and limitations. The study compares the efficacy&#xd;
of UV and simulated solar irradiation techniques for triclosan degradation, revealing that both&#xd;
methods exhibit effectiveness in degrading triclosan, with variations observed in degradation rates&#xd;
and byproduct formation. Through a detailed examination of the kinetics of triclosan degradation,&#xd;
the study reveals the intricate pathways and mechanisms involved in the photodegradation process.&#xd;
Results highlight the influence of irradiance levels and residence times on degradation efficiency.&#xd;
The research identifies optimal conditions for triclosan degradation, emphasizing the importance&#xd;
of residence time and irradiance levels. Results show that a residence time of 4 h and an irradiance&#xd;
level of 450W m−2 maximize degradation efficiency. Analysis of degradation byproducts provides&#xd;
insights into the transformation pathways of triclosan under UV and simulated solar irradiation,&#xd;
indicating the formation of 2,4-dichlorophenol, quinone, and hydroquinone as primary byproducts.</dc:description>
