Trametes hirsuta and a purified laccase from this organism were able to degrade triarylmethane, indigoid, azo, and anthraquinonic dyes. Initial decolorization velocities depended on the substituents on the phenolic rings of the dyes. Immobilization of the T. hirsuta laccase on alumina enhanced the thermal stabilities of the enzyme and its tolerance against some enzyme inhibitors, such as halide...

The separation of reactive, sulfur, and vat dyes from cotton dyeing effluent was investigated by a coagulation process using a cationic polymer electrolyte (PE). The coagulation of dyes was found to be considerably influenced by the amount of added PE and pH of the effluent. High degree of separation, (i.e.-90-99%) could be achieved for all the dyes. The secondary treatment of the PE treated (p...

The present study focuses on the improvement in the effluent treatment for the effluent generated from a cotton textile industry employing three reactive dyeing methods viz., Exhaust method, Pad-Dry-Cure method, and Pad-Batch method. Stabilisation pond, aeration tank, and aerobic biological treatment (using E-Coli type bacteria) are simulated in the laboratory in a series operation. Results rev...

Work summarized in this final report covering three years of research includes: 1) A method for real-time monitoring of disperse dye exhaustion on polyester and acetate; 2) A method for realtime monitoring of both reactive dye exhaustion and hydrolysis; 3) A comparison of a newly developed method for real-time monitoring of indigo with the conventional titrametric method; 4) Models of direct dy...

Natural dye extracted from Caesalpinia sappan Linn. was applied to a cotton fabric and silk yarn by dyeing process. The dyestuff component of Caesalpinia sappan Linn. was extracted using water and ethanol. Analytical studies such as UV–VIS spectrophotometry and gravimetric analysis were performed on the extracts. Brazilein, the major dyestuff component of Caesalpinia sappan Linn. was confirmed ...

Dye-house water quality is the most important parameter to be confirmed before dyeing; precisely the presence of metal content i.e. Hardness. This research will investigate & analyses the impact of separate hardness (i.e. Calcium, Magnesium & Iron) on particular „Turquoise‟ (C.I. Reactive Blue 21) & a „High Exhaustion‟ class (C.I. HE Red 120, C.I. HE Yellow 84) of Reactive dye on cotton knitted...

Abstract Sorona fiber was produced from renewable resources with excellent performance of ordinary synthetic. In this paper, throughout the production process and internal molecular structure fiber, author introduced its environmental protection, tensile elasticity, easy dyeing other properties current application.
