In this study, natural manganese oxides (MnOx), a potential environmental material with high redox potential, were used as a promising low-cost oxidant to degrade a widely used dyestuff methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution. Though the surface area of MnOx was only 7.17 m2 g−1, it performed well in the degradation of MB with a removal percentage of 85.6% in pH 4. It was found that MB was chemically degraded in low-pH reaction system and the degradation efficiency was correlated negatively with the pH values (4–8) and initial concentration of MB (10–50 mg l−1), but positively with the dosage of MnOx (1–5 g l−1). The degradation of MB fitted well with the second-order kinetics. Mathematic models were also built for the correlation of the kinetic constants with the pH value, the initial concentration of MB and the dosage of MnOx, respectively. Furthermore, several transformation products of MB were identified with HPLC-MS, which was linked with the bond energy theory to reveal that the degradation was initiated with demethylation.
