Online UV-Vis spectrophotometer technology as accurate, convenient and fast monitoring method was used to detect instantaneous dye concentration in aqueous medium. Ferrous ion coupling with Persulphate to degrade methylene blue (MB) exhibited a very high degradation rate, and therefore online UV-Vis spectrophotometer showed great advantage in this study. The effects of ferrous ion concentration, sodium Persulphate concentration, pH value and initial MB concentration on MB degradation were investigated. The online spectrophotometer could minimize the systematic error caused by the termination of adding chemicals and manual operation. At room temperature, the optimal condition was acquired with 73.6% MB removal after 100s at neutral medium when initial ferrous dosage and sodium Persulphate were 1.25 mmol/L and 0.2 mmol/L, respectively. Fe2+/S2O8 2- system exhibited a great degradation efficiency in acidic or neutral environment.
