Seawater and River Water

Abstract
The aim of these work was to study the direct photolysis of three pharmaceuticals with
relatively high potential ecological risk and high consumption-namely, fluconazole,
bicalutamide and anastozole promoted by photochemical processes. By conducting
experiments in Milli Q water, Baltic Sea Water and Olandsån River Water. To
evaluated this process under laboratory conditions, used chemical actinometer for
sunlight measurements. The actinometer is the known bicalutamide, fluconazole and
anastozole the half life in sunlight ranging from several minutes to 120 minutes. The
systems were relatively persistent against sunlight. It has quantum yield invariant with
wavelength to 261 nm for fluconazole 271 nm for bicalutamide and 269 for anastozole.
