Use of Chitosan for Textile Wastewater Decolourization

Biodegradation and decolourization of textile dye wastewater using Ganoderma lucidum

In this work, treatment of textile dye wastewater was carried in a batch reactor using Ganoderma lucidum. The characteristics of textile dye wastewater were studied. The effect of process parameters like pH, temperature, agitation speed and dye wastewater concentration on dye decolourization and degradation were studied. These parameters were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). ...

Decolourization of azo dyes in textile wastewater by microbial processes

synthesis of potassium ferrate for use in textile wastewater treatment

potassium ferrate has been used as a multi-purpose chemical in treatment of wastewaters. with the formula of k2fe04 it has 3 excellent characters for water treatment, so by using it alone, it would be possible to confine all reactivity, it is essential to prepare ferrate at the point of use. in this study, k2fe04 was synthesized, then it has been employed for chlorine gas with an alkaline solut...

Electroflocculation for Textile Wastewater Treatment

This work reports on the viability of the electroflocculation (EF) process for chemical oxygen demand (COD), turbidity and color removal from a raw effluent originated from a particular textile industry related to hemp manufacture. Firstly, the following operational parameters were optimized: current density; initial pH; electrolysis time; material of the electrode (iron, aluminum or iron-alumi...

Textile Dyeing Wastewater Treatment

Textile industry can be classified into three categories viz., cotton, woolen, and synthetic fibers depending upon the used raw materials. The cotton textile industry is one of the oldest industries in China. The textile dyeing industry consumes large quantities of water and produces large volumes of wastewater from different steps in the dyeing and finishing processes. Wastewater from printing...
