The textile dyeing units of Pallipalayam area of Namakkal District play a vital role in polluting the river Cauvery directly and spoiling the underground water levels indirectly by letting off their dyeing effluents. This leads to serious environmental hazards of aquatic organisms. In the present study, the textile dyeing effluents of six major textile dyeing units (ST1, ST2, ST3, ST4, ST5 and ...

BACKGROUND Hair graying is considered as a part of normal ageing process. Nonetheless, this process raises a significant cosmetic concern, especially among ethnic Korean elderly whose baseline hair color is black. For this reason, Korean elderly dye their hair with frequency despite the risk of dermatologic problems such as allergic contact dermatitis. OBJECTIVE In this study, the authors inv...

When the textile industry wastewater volume and considering composition appears to be one of most environmentally hazardous industries. Due basic properties dyeing wastewater, additional precaution are required besides conventional treatment remove color. The approach is color break down chromophores double bonds that make up by oxidative means. In this study, treatability containing Reactive Y...

Liposomes are lipid-water systems that can carry hydrophobic and hydrophilic materials because of their amphiphilic structures. Application of liposomes in dyeing and finishing textiles is a new technology based on targeting and slow release which can lead to dyeing at lower temperature along with energy savings and lower environmental impacts. In this research work, a practical method for dyei...

The natural dyes separated from plants are of gaining interest as substitutes for synthetic dyes in food and cosmetics. Thespesia populnea (T. populnea) is widely grown plant and used in the treatment of various diseases. This study was aimed to separate natural dye from T. populnea bark and analysis of its dyeing property on different fabrics. In this investigation pharmacognostic study was ca...

Abstract This work reports the successful synthesis and application of α-Cu-FeOOH in heterogeneous Fenton treatment actual textile dyeing wastewater. The material characteristics were analyzed by SEM, EDX, BET, FTIR, XRD methods. In tests, highest TOC color removal efficiencies found to be 46.88 37.98%, respectively, suitable conditions Cu/Fe molar ratio = 5%, [H 2 O ] 0.1 M, [α-Cu-FeOOH] 0.6 g...

In this study the feasibility of treating dyeing wastewater with sulfate reducing granular sludge was explored, focusing on decolorization/degradation of azo dye (Procion Red HE-7B) and the performance of microbial consortia under alkaline conditions (pH=11). Efficiency of HE-7B degradation was influenced strongly by the chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration which was examined in the range...

A review of plant-based coagulant sources, processes, effectiveness and relevant coagulating mechanisms for treatment of water and wastewater is presented. These coagulants are, in general, used as point-of-use technology in less-developed communities since they are relatively cost-effective compared to chemical coagulants, can be easily processed in usable form and biodegradable. These natural...
