fe3o4 magnetic nanoparticles modified with 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide([c8mim]-fe3o4) were used for the removal of reactive red 141 (rr141) and reactive yellow 81 (ry81) as model azo dyes from aqueous solution. the mean size and the surface morphology of the nanoparticles were characterized by tem, xrd and ftir techniques. adsorption studies of two dyes were performed under different ex...

background: in this study, adsorbentn process performance was assessed using nickel oxide nanoparticles for wastewater treatment containing mono azo orange ii dye in a laboratory scale. methods: the effects of various factors such as adsorbent dosage, contact time, ph and initial dye concentration were investigated. findings: based on the obtained results, the optimum ph range to dye removal is...

In this data article, we introduce data acquired from new adsorbent, bi-metalized chitosan particle that is successfully synthesized and applied to remove the orange II dye, an azo dye, from textile wastewater. The adsorbent was meso- and macro-porous material with BET surface area of 12.69 m(2)/g and pHzpc 6.6. The simulated textile-wastewater can be significantly treated using a relatively lo...

Twenty-two azo dyes were used to study the influence of substituents on azo dye biodegradability and to explore the possibility of enhancing the biodegradabilities of azo dyes without affecting their properties as dyes by changing their chemical structures. Streptomyces spp. and Phanerochaete chrysosporium were used in the study. None of the actinomycetes (Streptomyces rochei A10, Streptomyces ...

The photocatalytic degradation of the chemical dye AZO and dye effluents in different time duration has been investigated using biologically synthesized silver nanoparticles. Dye industry effluents and AZO dye undergo degradation to form harmless intermediate and colourless products following irradiation by UV and solar light in the presence of green synthesized silver nanoparticles. The degree...

Azo dye derivatives of azobenzene constitute the largest group of dyes used in the textile industry and possess recalcitrant chemical groups, such as those of azo and sulphonic acid. Some microorganisms are able to degrade these aromatic compounds. In the present work, decolourisation of culture media containing azo dyes by the ligninolytic fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium was achieved under ...

Mixed anaerobic bacterial consortia have been show to reduce azo dyes and batch decolourisation tests have also demonstrated that predominantly methanogenic cultures also perform azo bond cleavage. The anaerobic treatment of wool dyeing effluents, which contain acetic acid, could thus be improved with a better knowledge of methanogenic dye degradation. Therefore, the decolourisation of two azo ...

The photoinduced alignment of a liquid crystal (LC) on films of azo dyes was studied for the liquid crystal display applications. In order to improve the alignment stability of the photoaligned dye (SD-1), the azo-dye derivative with polymerizable terminal groups was synthesized (SDA-1). The films of SDA-1 exhibit good photoalignment properties and ultraviolet stability after thermal polymeriza...

Effect of photoaligning azo-dye layers thickness on the alignment quality and multiplex operation of passively addressed ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) 1.5μm display cells has been investigated. An optimal (about 3~5 nm) azo-dye layer thickness, that provides both the highest multiplex operation steadiness and the best contrast ratio of FLC display cells was found.

Under anaerobic conditions the sulfonated azo dye Mordant Yellow 3 was reduced by the biomass of a bacterial consortium grown aerobically with 6-aminonaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid. Stoichiometric amounts of the aromatic amines 6-aminonaphthalene-2-sulfonate and 5-aminosalicylate were generated and excreted into the medium. After re-aeration of the culture, these amines were mineralized by differe...
