The development of an active, stable and low-cost catalyst remains one of the main challenges for the industrial implementation of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in the presence of heterogeneous catalysts. Recent studies have proposed the use of natural materials with minimal modifications in order to make the process more economic (Navalon et al., 2010). In this work, we study the performance of catalytic ozonation and Fenton-like processes using raw and acid-modified natural zeolite for the mineralization of Orange II.
