A membrane module, utilizing photocatalytic membranes, has been employed in a pilot plant, in conditions of solar irradiation, to investigate photomineralisation of atrazine, propazine, terbutylazine, symazine, prometryn, and ametryn, as model molecules of s -triazine herbicides, at a standard concentration (1.0 ppm) simulating those of contaminated aquifers, by using ozone as oxygen supplier. Photocatalytic composite membranes immobilised 30 ± 3 wt.% of TiO2 and 6 wt.% of a synergic mixture of tri-(t-butyl)- and tri-(i-propyl)vanadate(V). Photomineralisation was followed by analysis of substrate disappearance, as such, and
