In the present study, amoxicillin (AMX) solution was treated by the combination of sonocatalysis (ultrasound/MgO nanoparticles) with electrolysis (Pt anode/graphite cathode). The reaction rate of the combined process (5.29 X 10-2 min-1) was over two orders of magnitude higher than that of the sonocatalysis (2.45 X10-2 min-1). AMX was decomposed synergistically by the hybrid process (synergy percent of about 16%). On the basis of the applied mathematical modeling, an AMX removal efficiency (%) of more than 93% was achieved at Na2SO4 concentration of 0.13 M, current intensity of 0.04 A, MgO nanoparticles dosage of 1.8 g/L and AMX concentration of 11 mg/L.
