In the proposed methodology, a technique for the removal of color of textile effluent which proves to be cost efficient has been uncovered. It has also been examined that the process of photo catalytic degradation was involved in the system which is under consideration. In order to perform experimental study we need a batch reactor setup installed with adequate UV light intensity of 11W. Optimization study has been performed with heterocatalysts such as Titanium dioxide (TiO2) and iron oxide (Fe2O3) which were added at a dosage concentration of 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1g/ respectively. Based on the UV absorbance and COD removal efficiency, it could be noted that the maximum dye removal was attained at the catalyst concentration of 0.5g/l with Titanium dioxide as well as Iron oxide. Also, the effective contact time of catalyst could be framed as 40 minutes and 60 minutes for Titanium dioxide and iron oxide respectively. From the experimental data, it could be finalized that the maximum absorbance removal efficiency achieved was 87.85% while using TiO2 catalyst at a dosage concentration of 0.5g/l. In the same way, maximum removal efficiency with respect to the COD concentration could be achieved was 94.11% using heterocatalysts
