title: A kinetic model for the decolorization of C.I. Acid Yellow 23 by Fenton process.
abstract: The decolorization of azo dye C.I. Acid Yellow 23 (AY23) by Fenton process was investigated. The decolorization rate is strongly dependent on the initial concentrations of the Fe(2+) and H(2)O(2). The optimum operational conditions were obtained at pH 3. A kinetic model has been developed to predict the decolorization of AY23 at different operational conditions by Fenton process. The model allows to simulate the system behavior involving the influence of hydrogen peroxide, Fe(II) and dye concentrations.
