Internal-illuminated monolith photoreactor was designed to transmit light uniformly.
Catalysts were fully characterized by SEM, TEM, BET, XRD, UV–vis and XPS techniques.
Photodegradation of IPA at ppb level was studied under various operating conditions.
The removal efficiency increased up to nearly 80% over Ag/TiO2 photocatalyst.
Photoreactor is potentially applicable to cleanroom in the semiconductor industry.
