The lack of control and consciousness in exploring the natural resources for a long period has now showed humanity its consequences. The scarcity of potable water or water eligible for treatment is already a truth for most of the civilized world. The textile industries generate large quantities of waste with low level, including dyes used in the process and there are difficulties in treating and disposal of those wastes. The present study aimed into the degradation of simulated textile effluents through electrolytic process, the evaluation of the effectiveness in the degradation and the ecotoxicological evaluation of the treated effluent through tests with Lactuca sativa, Eruca sativa, Cucumis sativus, Artemia salina, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The Acid Blue 40 e Acid Red 151 dyes presented toxicity for the seeds of L. sativa, E. sativa e C. sativus, and not presenting toxicity for A. salina e S. cerevisiae. The free residual chlorine shown itself toxic to all of the organisms, having A. salina as the most sensitive of them. The S. cerevisiae although not demonstrating sensitivity to the dyes in the analyzed concentrations, presented sensible to the electrolytic process presenting more sensitivity to the samples of the 30 and 40 min. It was possible to inactivate all of the free residual chlorine generated during the process with the addition of sodium thiosulfate to the treated effluent. The study concludes that 15 min of treatment is enough to remove the initial color of the simulated effluent and presents less toxicity among the color-removed samples being this the optimal amount of time of treatment in the conditions in which the study was developed
