Abstract: Photocatalytic degradation of Acid Green 16 has been investigated in aqueous heterogeneous solutions containing TiO2 as photocatalyst. The influence of irradiation period, dye concentration , catalyst loading, light intensity, H2O2, FeCl3 and Fenton's reagent has been systematically studied. Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) determination and OD measurement (spectroscopy) have been used to study the degradation and decolorisation, respectively. A solution containing 9 × 10-4 M of the dye could be completely decolourised in 30 min and 90 per cent degradation could be achieved in 3 h.
