The photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue(MB) was investigated using $TiO_2$ as photocatalyst and UV radiation. $TiO_2$ supported with activated carbon(AC) was prepared by SOL-GEL method and depended on several parameters such as the mass ratio of $TiO_2/AC$, pH and experimental time. The presence of the anatase and rutile crystal phase was determined by XRD analyses of the prepared $TiO_2$. The degradation of MB with $TiO_2/AC$ was about 20% higher than that of AC alone. A variation of photodegradation was negligible under UV radiation conditions ( ${geq}$ 40W). It was experimentally showed that the photodegradation rate was increased with increasing the amount of photocatalyst. The optimal catalyst was prepared by impregmation of $5wt%-TiO_2$ with AC and was calcined at $300^{circ}C$, and showed about 99% removal efficiency for 3hrs.
