Sonocatalytic degradation of methylparaben (MPB) in the presence of a low-cost clay mineral (sepiolite) was optimized using a multivariable center composite design protocol based on response surface methodology (RSM). Using the data generated with varying MPB concentrations, pH, frequency and catalyst dose, two semi-empirical expressions were developed to describe the relation between the apparent reaction rate constant of the parent compound and the most significant control variables. It was found that ultrasonic power, pH, sepiolite dose and its interactions with time and pH were the most significant parameters influencing the rate of MPB decay under high frequency ultrasound. The models also showed that the rate constant was a convex function of time, as it decreased during the first 35-min of sonolysis and increased thereafter, indicating the formation and depletion of competing oxidation byproducts. Finally, the models predicted that the rate of MPB decay was a maximum either at alkaline pH and a high sepiolite dose (k = 1.68 x 10(-1) min(-1)), or at acidic pH and a considerably lower dose of the mineral (k = 1.48 x 10(-1) min(-1)).
