We present a simple experimental method which allows the evaluation of the absorbed photon flow. The method is based on measurements of transmitted photon rates (by means of standard actinometer solutions) for different reactor thicknesses and/or catalyst concentrations. The method was applied to phenol degradation reaction carried out in a stirred batch phtotoreactor containing aqueous TiO 2 (anatase) dispersion, directly irradied by a 1,500 W Xe lamp
