background and purpose:organic dyes with a complex structure are often toxic, carcinogenic, mutagenic, non-biodegradation and stable in the environment and if released to the environment without treatment can endanger the environment and human health. the aim was to evaluate the performance nanoscalezero-valent iron (nzvi) in the removal of dye acid red 18 (ar18) from aqueous solutions. materia...

Dissolution of azo dyes derived from N-carboxylic acid-1,8-naphthalimide was studied in aqueous solutions containing formaldehyde condensation of naphthalenesulphonic acid and fatty alcohol ethylene oxide compound surfactants and effect of additional hydroxyl group on chemical structure of dye on dissolution was investigated. In addition, the effect of important factors on dissolution of used d...

In a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC), the amount of light absorption dependson the design of the pigments, which determines the strength of light absorption and theoptical range of the cell. In this paper, we have constructed and studied two fairly similarpattern of DSSCs in structure. The thickness of TiO2 used for both cells is taken to be 2μm. We have used an industrial N719 dye for one of ...

In this paper we sensitized three free-metal azo days Dye 1, Dye 2 and Dye 3 based on 1,8-naphthalimide with n-propyl as the electron donor group. We used sulfonic acid and hydroxyl substituents as the electron acceptor anchoring group in synthesized dyes. The proposed dyes were sensitized from acenaphthene as the starting material by standard reactions and characterized by different techniques...

a bacterial strain (strain ps) was isolated from the textile effluents carrying serilene black bnfs® (c.i. disp. blk. mix) disperse dye. the isolate was able to decolorize the dye without the need for any exogenous carbon source. full sequencing of its 16s rrna indicated that bacillus sp strain ps is related to bacillus cereus groups.  silica- gel-thin layer chromatography of serilene black dye...

in this work, the synthesis of porous structure of cadmium oxide with multilayered sheet-like morphology in nano-meter size using adipic acid as soft template by solvothermal/thermal decomposition process is reported. chemical analyses exhibited that the formation of porous sheet-like structure is originated from bidentate coordination mode of adipate units to cd-center. it was found that the c...

Mesoporous carbon (CMK-3) modified with Fe3O4 nanoparticles has been successfully synthesized and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).The results depict that the synthesized Fe-CMK-3 preserved the ordered mesoporous structure of CMK-3, and magnetic species were dispersed insi...

Herein, the removal of methyl orange (MO), a monoazo dye, from aqueous solutions was investigated using bimetallic ferromagnetic Fe/Ni nanoparticles (NPs) with the average particle size of 12-16 nm. The effect of contact time, pH, temperature, and Fe/Ni dosage on dye removal process was investigated. The results showed that 60 mg of Fe/Ni NPs at 25 oC and pH= 1 can remove 99.5% of 50 mg/L dye s...

The structure of the dye layer adsorbed on the titania substrate in a dye-sensitized solar cell is of fundamental importance for the function of the cell, since it strongly influences the injection of photoelectrons from the excited dye molecules into the titania substrate. The adsorption isotherms of the N719 ruthenium-based dye were determined both with a direct method using the depth profili...

In this paper we sensitized two new organic days dye 1 and dye 2 based on thioindigo with phenothiazine as the electron donor group. We used acrylic acid and cyanoacrylic acid as the electron acceptor anchoring group in dye 1 and dye 2 respectively. The proposed dyes were sensitized from phenothiazine as the starting material by standard reactions and characterized by different techniques such ...
