Abstract The current study mainly investigated the influences of concentration of HQ, pH, and temperature on the characteristics of rhodamine B degradation by HQ -activated persulfate process. The results showed the extent of rhodamine B degradation was enhanced significantly by persulfatein the presence of activator (HQ). The extent of rhodamine B degradation in acid reaction systems was higher than those in basic reaction system during HQ-activated persulfate process.And the extent of rhodamine B degradation also increased with the increasing contents of HQ. A linear relationship exists between reaction rate constants and HQ contents with correlation coefficients R2 in a range from 0.9498 to 0.9951. Furthermore, in the presence of HQ, the activation energies decreased from 41.99kJ/mol to 13.90kJ/mol, and consequently, the reaction rate and efficiency of rhodamine B degradation were elevated high enough to 90 percent and the reaction rate constant increased by 106 percent. It was attributed to the semi-quinone racial generated by the HQ in reaction system, because semi-quinone racial could effectively activate the persulfate. Thus the efficiency of rhodamine B degradation was enhanced significantly in the interaction system of “HQ-RhB-persulfate”.
