This study aimed at improving the treatment efficiency of dyeing wastewater using a hybrid process of Fenton oxidation and membrane separation. The supernatant after pre-treatment through Fenton oxidation of dyeing wastewater was fed to the ultra-filtration (UF) membrane separation system. In the Fenton oxidation process, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency was the highest at pH 3. To minimize membrane clogging of the UF membrane module, powdered activated carbon (PAC) was added to the pre-treated supernatant. The effect of PAC addition on the permeate flux and treatment efficiency of the membrane separation process was investigated. When PAC was added to the supernatant after pre-treatment through Fenton oxidation, the COD removal efficiency was 80.22 %. In the membrane separation process, the COD removal efficiency was 94.93 % when PAC was not added and 98.48 % when it was added. The permeate flux in the presence of PAC decreased more rapidly than it did in the absence of PAC, but the recovery of permeability from cleaning was relatively higher.
