Degradation of Congo Red Dye in Aqueous Solution by Using Phytoremediation Potential of Chara Vulgaris
نویسنده
چکیده
Phytoremediation is an eco-friendly and non destructive method of dye removal from water and soil. In this research study, phytoremediation potential of a macroalgae Chara vulgaris was investigated as a viable biomaterial for biological treatment of congo red in aqueous solution. The effects of parameters such as reaction time, pH, initial dye concentration, temperature and amount of algae on biological decolourization efficiency were examined with help of UV-Vis and FT-IR spectroscopy. It has been found that Chara vulgaris is efficiently degrading congo red dye in aqueous solution through phytoextraction process.
