Azo dyes are often used in textile industries which are lost in waste water during the dyeing procedure and causes great threats to aquatic life. Herein, the degradation of Congo red dye in the presence of single-walled carbon nanotube-ruthenium nanoparticles catalyst was investigated. A comparative study was conducted to determine the mechanism of degradation. The composite catalytic properties were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy.
