Abstract
Semiconductor metal oxides/its composites with polymers have been explored for dye degradation through photocatalytic mechanism; these require UV or visible light for activation. Hence, there is need to develop (photo) catalyst that work in absence/presence of light. Towards this objective we are exploring metal peroxides and its composites for dye degradation. Here, we report our work on magnesium peroxide and its composites for dye degradation by photochemical pathways. The nanocomposites are synthesized from monomers and peroxides. The synthesized composites have been characterized by IR, DRS and powder XRD. The composites did not degrade dyes in dark.

Chemical oxidation of methylene blue using a Fenton-like reaction.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the dye can be most effectively oxidized in aqueous solution at dye:Fe(2+):H2O2 molar ratio of 1:1.1, which corresponds to about 81% reduction of the initial COD.
