The heterogeneous Fenton process was employed to degrade methyl orange (MO) using goethite as the catalyst. The catalyst stability was evaluated by measuring color removal in three successive cycles. The goethite samples before and after the reaction were characterized by XRD, SEM and FTIR techniques. The effect of major parameters, including pH, H2O2concentration, catalyst addition and initial dye concentration on the decolorization of MO was investigated. The results indicated that the MO decolorization rate increased with the increase of H2O2concentration and catalyst addition, but decreased with the increase of initial MO concentration. The optimal initial pH for the decolorization was found as 3. The acute toxicity experiments illustrated that theDaphnia magnamortality declined with the progress of the oxidation.
