In this study, we have reported an efficient and stable degradation of pollutants at salinity condition using newly developed solar-light-driven silicone-TiO₂ based photocatalytic immobilized system. The interfacial layer of Silicone-PEG-P/Ag/Ag₂O/Ag₃PO₄/TiO₂ (S-PEG/PAgT) photocatalyst exhibited higher surface roughness, hydrophobicity, better light absorption, and narrow band gap than S-TiO₂. The Rh B degradation by S-PEG/PAgT (91.2%) was 1.71 folds higher than S-TiO₂ (53.5%) under simulated solar light irradiation. The reduction rate was significantly higher in S-PEG/PAgT (0.0792 min⁻¹) than S-TiO₂ (0.0229 min⁻¹). The S-PEG/PAgT demonstrated high TOC removal (>80%), high repeatability (10 cycles) and excellent activity after 30 days of incubation in aqueous NaCl. The mechanism analysis revealed the synergistic effect of surface morphology with irregular chamfered edges and photoinduced reactive species (O₂⁻) with successive formation of free chlorine radicals (Cl) contributed to the removal of pollutants in saline wastewater. Therefore, considering the above advantages of high efficiency and effective elimination of organics illustrates the potential of newly developed S-PEG/PAgT immobilized system in long-term practical treatment real seawater and ballast water.
