In this study, Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄ NPs) were successfully prepared via oxidation-precipitation method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The characterization results indicated that Fe₃O₄ NPs with regular crystal structure and a narrow of diameters had been synthesized successfully and had high purity. A series of experiments were carried out to investigate the degradation of Orange Ⅱ by the obtained heterogeneous Fe₃O₄ catalysts in the presence of H₂O₂. The response surface methodology (RSM) based on Box-Behnken design (BBD) was employed to design and optimize individual and interactive effects of the four main independent parameters (catalyst loading, initial pH, reaction temperature and H₂O₂ concentration) on decolorization efficiency of Orange Ⅱ. A significant quadratic model (p-value <0.0001, R²=0.9369) was derived using analysis of variance (ANOVA). Optimum conditions were catalyst loading of 1.5 g/L, initial pH of 2.7, reaction temperature of 42℃ and H₂O₂ concentration of 22 mmol/L, respectively. The predicted decolorization rate under the optimum conditions as determined by the proposed model was 99.55%. Confirmatory tests were carried out and the decolorization rate of 99.49% was observed under the optimum conditions, which agreed well with the model prediction.
