The textile industry gain relevance, considering that it generates large volumes. This work aimed to evaluate the efficiency of different advanced oxidation processes (AOP) for the degradation of the mixture textile dyes in solution. After optimization of the main parameters involved in the applied processes and systems, the AOP with greater efficiency in the degradation of the compounds was the photo-Fenton/UV-C (92%) after 360 min of treatment. The experimental data showed a better fit to the Chan and Chu kinetic model and trough an evaluation using artificial neural networks it was possible to predict the maximum degradation achievable by the dye mixture. The toxicity assays, using multiple species of seeds indicated a treated solution with no toxic effects and that the applied methodology can be used without affecting the water resources.</p>}, journal={Revista Eletrônica em Gestão, Educação e Tecnologia Ambiental}, author={Oliveira, Marcos André Soares de and Neves, Naiana Santos da Cruz Santana and Santana, Rayany Magali da Rocha and Lucena, Alex Leandro Andrade de and Zaidan, Léa Elias Mendes Carneiro and Cavalcanti, Vanessa De Oliveira Marques and Silva, Gilson Lima da and Napoleão, Daniella Carla}, year={2022}, month={Jul.}, pages={e12} }
