Background & Aims of the Study: Dyes are one of the most contaminants in textile industrial wastewater that they are often carcinogenic, mutagenic and non-degradable. Therefore, with regard to environmental aspects, their removal from effluents is very essential. The purpose of this study was the perception of adsorption process and promotion of an economic technology for color...

in this work, response surface methodology (rsm) and artificial neural network (ann) were used to predict the decolorization efficiency of reactive red 33 (rr 33) by o3/uv process in a bubble column reactor. the effects of four independent variables including time (20-60 min), superficial gas velocity (0.06-0.18 cm/s), initial concentration of dye (50-150 ppm) and ph (3-11) were investigated us...

this study evaluates the effectiveness of adsorption process by granular activated carbon (gac) compared with a novel formulation of coagulation - flocculation process for dye removal from textile wastewater. in this regard, acidic, reactive, disperse and direct red dye are used to prepare the synthetic dye. dominant wave length for each dye is determined by spectrophotometeric method. using ga...

In this research, the effects of different color intensities, anoxic + anaerobic times and types of substrate on color removal effectiveness were studied using 16-litre bench scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR) anoxic + anaerobic/aerobic models. The systems were fed with a synthetic wastewater containing 500 mg/l of COD, 50 mg/l of N, 15 mg/l of P along with 10, 40 and 80 mg/l of reactive diaz...

background: colors make many problems and these are major sources of environmental pollution. therefore, this wastewater should be treated before discharge to environment to reduce the environmental threats. adsorption is one of the usual processes for color removal from wastewater. nanotube s are new adsorbents with extend application for adsorption of different compounds. aim of this study wa...

Textile dyeing is considered to be one of the major industrial sources of high rates of organic and aromatic compounds. Conversely, these compounds have become a significant environmental problem. Many methods have been investigated for color removal from dye-containing wastewater. In this research, the efficiency of the electrocoagulation (EC) process with aluminum electrodes in the removal of...

This study investigates the anaerobic treatability of reactive Red2 in an anaerobic/aerobic sequential process. Laboratory scale anaerobic baffled reactor and fixed activated sludge reactor were operated at different organic loadings and hydraulic retention times. The effects of shock dye concentration on the chemical oxygen demand and color removal efficiencies were investigated in the anaerob...

Background & Aims of the Study: Malachite Green (MG) is the most commonly used substance for dying cotton, food & pharmacy industries, paper, leather and silk. On inhalation it can cause difficult breathing, while on the direct contact it may cause permanent injury of the eyes of human and animals, burning sensations, nausea, vomiting, profuse sweating, mental confusion and met...
