The phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) has been used as an adsorbent for the removal of dyes (Methylene blue and Congo red dye) from synthetic aqueous solution. Different factors of the adsorbent, like, contact time, pH of the sorption medium, concentration of the dye solution, were investigated by the batch sorption experiment. The adsorption equilibrium data was best fitted by the Langmuir isotherm m...

-The present work is focused on the heterogeneous photocatalytic degradation of Amaranth dye over immobilized nano-crystals of TiO2. Immobilization has been an acceptable approach to overcome the drawbacks encountered with powder suspensions. Immobilization is performed using polyvinyl alcohol-formaldehyde binder. This method of immobilization does not require thermal heating at high temperatur...

Several negatively charged dyes were investigated for their possible adsorption on the surface of silver and gold colloidal particles. Those dyes that were found to adsorb on the particles were then checked for surface enhancement of Raman scattering. Highly efficient surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) was observed from a carbocyanine dye in both sols. Excitation-dependence studies as wel...

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...

Selective polymeric extractants were prepared for preconcentration of Cibacron reactive red dye, a dye that is often applied with Cibacron reactive blue and Cibacron reactive yellow for dyeing of fabrics. The best extractant was fabricated (in chloroform) using methacrylic acid (as monomer), ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (as crosslinker), AIBN (as initiator for polymerization), and red dye as ...

The removal of dyes from wastewater, is one of the major environmental concerns due to their high color density, and they are toxic at even low concentrations. Adsorption process by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) has been found to be a more effective method than classical methods for treating dye-containing wastewater. This research, is to investigate the decolorization abilities of az...

Second harmonic generation (SHG) was used to study both the adsorption of malachite green (MG), a positively charged organic dye, onto liposomes of different lipid compositions, and the transport kinetics of MG across the liposome bilayer in real time. We found that the dye adsorption increased linearly with the fraction of negatively charged lipids in the bilayer. Similarly, the transport rate...

in the present study, hydrilla verticillata biomass was investigated as a novel biosorbent for the uptake of basic dye malachite green from its aqueous solution. kinetic and equilibrium studies were carried out in batch process. batch adsorption experiments were conducted to study the effect of ph, temperature, sorbent dosage, initial dye concentration, and contact time for the removal malachit...
