Abstract

Oxidative degradation of Brilliant Red X–3B has been carried out using Fenton’s reagent both in the dark and in the presence of visible light. The degradation rate was increased using Fenton’s process in the order of Dark < Visible < UV. At pH 3.3, the maximum Fenton and photo-Fenton effect were noticed. At [H2O2]/[Fe(III)] = 3.5, a steady Fenton effect was observed. Meanwhile, at [H2O2]/[Fe(III)] = 0.7, Fenton process in the dark minimized the photo effect. The degradation rate was positively influenced by the temperature where the activation energy of degradation was evaluated as 36.98 kJ mol-1.
