The present work was directed toward the successful ability of electerocoagulation to remove color from synthetic and simulated textile effluent by aluminum/iron electrodes. Two representative reactive dyes were selected for the synthetic dye system, a black dye alone and mixed dye (black, blue, red, 1:1:1 vol/vol). Several important operating parameters such as electrode material, initial pH(3...

This study reports the capacities and mechanisms of live biomass of an ascomycetes strain, Aspergillus niger HM11 biomass preparations in removing a textile dye Reactive blue 140 from aqueous solution was investigated with different parameters, such as adsorbent dosage, pH, initial dye concentrations and equilibrium time. pH study and desorption profile proved that adsorption process was suppor...

The adsorption of textile dyes by clay was investigated using basic dye (Methylene Blue). Adsorption of dye effluent onto clay samples was carried by batch studies at room temperature, 25oC. The effects of adding clay with zeolite, pH and shaking time towards adsorption performance were investigated. The results from the mixture of 1.0 g clay and 0.01 g zeolite, the increases of pH, pH 9 and th...

The influence of osmotic pressure and solute adsorption on permeate flux during nanofiltration (NF) of a wool textile dye solution was investigated. Solutions of C.I. Acid Orange 7 with concentrations ranging from 2 to 2000 mg/l were subjected to nanofiltration with a NF 45 membrane. An increase of flux decline with dye concentration was observed. The resistance-in-series model gives evidence t...

Study on the photocatalytic decolorization of aqueous solution of Direct Red 23, a commercial azo-reactive textile dye, in the presence of UV light radiation. The effect of different reaction parameters on the photo catalyst of DR 23 was assessed best operational parameters were observed as photons: catalyst loading 1gm-3.0gm/50ml, pH 3.5-11.5, temperature 303k,dye concentration10mg/50ml-70mg/5...

Dye-containing wastewater generated from textile industries is a major source of environmental pollution. Azo dyes, which are the largest group of coloring agents, are widely used in industries.This research investigated the photocatalytic decolorization and degradation of an azo dye Reactive Red 198 (RR198) in aqueous solution with TiO2-P25 (Degussa) as photocatalyst in slurry form using UV li...

the photocatalytic decolorization of aqueous solutions brown ng, a commercial textile dye, was studied using titana degussa p-25 as a catalyst for the first time. the experiments were carried out in a batch reactor with the use of artificial light sources (uv-c). the effects of various process variables on decolorization performance of the process have been investigated. the photodegradation of...

The use of ultrasound in textile wet processing offers many potential advantages. Previous work has shown that the use of ultrasonics in dyeing provides the following benefits: (1) energy savings and reduced processing times, (2) environmental improvements, (3) process enhancement, and (4) lower overall processing costs. A fundamental understanding of the operative processes are needed so that ...

Dye photodegradation using ozone and Nickel ferrite nanoparticle (NFN) as a photocatalyst was studied. The catalyst was synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, SEM and XRD. Textile dyes including Remazol Red RB (RRRB) and Direct Green B (DGB) were degraded as model compounds. Dye degradation was investigated using UV–Vis and ion chromatography (IC) analyses. The effect of catalyst dosage, pH, s...
