This work studies the action of the electrical underwater discharge on the aqueous solution of the mixture of two dyes. Experimental findings demonstrate that an electrical discharge does not obligatory cause the destruction of organic dyes. While, according to the obtained data, the diaphragm discharge always results in the destruction of both dyes. The combination of the electrical discharge with ozone leads to several-times acceleration of the solution decolorization. A possible mechanism of the destruction of two dyes at the initial stage is suggested.
Keywords: underwater electrical discharges, ozone, hydrogen peroxide, mechanism of destruction.
