Selective oxidation and direct decolorization of cationic dyes by persulfate without activation

The aim of this work was to investigate the selective oxidation and direct decolorization of selected organic dyes (Methylene Blue (MB), Rhodamine B (RhB) and Orange II (OrgII)) by persulfate (PDS) without activation. Results show that the decolorization rate of MB was up to 58.0% within 10 minutes,...
