Thus, the advanced oxidative processes (AOP) have been used to degrade the dye and convert organic matter. In the present study, the degradation of the reactive blue dyes BF-5G and red remazol RB 133% were evaluated through Fenton and photo-Fenton processes (solar and sunlight). To determine the best working condition, the pH, peroxide concentration, iron concentration and time variables were evaluated by performing a kinetic study in this condition. From a preliminary study, it was verified that the Fenton and photo-Fenton processes, using different radiations, presented similar results, reaching a degradation of more than 98% for each dye. The factorial design indicated better results for a concentration of H2O2 of 10 mg . L-1, iron concentration of 5 mg . L-1 and time of 15 min, obtaining degradation above 88% for the studied dyes. A good kinetic adjustment was verified for a pseudo first order kinetic model (R2 = 0.9921 and 0.9867 for blue and red dyes, respectively). Ultimately, the study of chemi-cal oxygen demand indicated a conversion of 75.98% for the Fenton process, 86.63% photo-Fenton solar and 87.02% photo-Fenton sunlight.</p> ER -
