Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) reduction of wastewater from soybean tofu production was studied by conducting advanced oxidation process (AOP) using hydrogen peroxide with UV radiation catalysts in a closed cylindrical glass reactor. The hydroxyl radical (*OH) concentration from H 2 O decomposition was modeled, and exponential trends were found for the *OH concentration over radiation time and operation temperature. As a result, it was found that the maximal *OH concentration was 0.209 mol L -1 2 at 240 minutes and 50 °C. The *OH concentration exponentially increased following rise in operation temperature. The H 2 O /UV AOP application reduced COD concentration to approximately 42.41% from 10,545 to 6,073.2 mol L -1 2 at 240 minutes and 50 °C. In addition, the pseudo second order kinetics is a reliable model to present the COD reduction kinetics with the correlation coefficient R in the range of 95.9 to 99.4%. The kinetics constant increased with rise in operation temperature, and it was approximately 2.30E-07, 2.590E-07, and 3.03E-07 L mg -1 min -1 for 30, 40, and 50 °C, respectively. The activation energy of COD reduction obtained was approximately 0.0138 J mol
