The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive analysis of X-ray (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Structural and morphological properties of nano particles were investigated and the average crystalline size of ZnO and Mn-doped ZnO was obtained 44 and 51 nm, respectively. Also, photo catalytic removal of Cibacen Turquoise Blue G dye from aqueous solution by using nano scale ZnO and Mn-ZnO powders under UV light irradiation was studied. The effect of initial dye concentrations and dosage of photo catalysts, were investigated in the photo destructive process. This is 57% of dye degraded by 0.02 mg of ZnO in 70 minutes. The degradation rate increase to 84% in the presence of 0.02 mg of Mn-ZnO in the same time.
