Research work reports the synthesis method of nanocomposite ZnO/CuO/β-CD and it is characterized by X-ray diffraction UV-vis absorption spectra. Photocatalytic activity measured using organic dye Malachite Green (MG) as model pollutant. Dye degradation follow pseudo first order kinetics. Efficiency photocatalytic process percentage degradation. Rate constant band gap also calculated.

One kind of adsorbent with a high adsorption capacity for anionic dyes was prepared using ionically and chemically cross-linked chitosan beads. A batch system was applied to study the adsorption behavior of one acid dye (MY, metanil yellow) and one reactive dye (RB15, reactive blue 15) in aqueous solutions by the cross-linked chitosan beads. The adsorption capacities was 3.56 mmol g(-1) (1334 m...

New hybrid organic-inorganic dyes based on an azide-functionalized cubic octasilsesquioxane (POSS) as the inorganic part and a 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BDP) chromophore as the organic component have been synthesized by copper(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azides to alkynes. We have studied the effects of the linkage group of BDP to the POSS unit and the degree of ...

Pulses from a broadband dye laser operating in many modes have been temporally smoothed by passing them through a strongly saturated dye amplifier in the presence of a strong, nonsaturable absorber. The standard nonlinear coupled partial differential equations based on the rate-equation approximation have been used to model the amplifier. Both analytic and numerical solutions for the equations ...

Methylene blue was efficiently removed from aqueous solution by foam flotation using a rhamnolipid a biosurfactant as a dye collector. The effects of four parameters, namely, pH (1.5–11.5), frother concentration (5–65 ppm), aeration rate (2–6 L/min) and rhamnolipid to methylene blue weight ratio (0.5–6.5), on dye removal were studied and optimized using response surface methodology. Results...

A highly stable graphene-like metal-organic framework (BUC-17) was prepared and used as an adsorbent to carry out the adsorption of anionic dyes from simulated wastewater, which exhibited excellent adsorption performance, particularly towards Congo red (CR) up to 4923.7 mg g-1 at room temperature. It was used to fix a SPE column to conduct rapid separation of anionic dyes from an organic dye ma...

The neutral organic dye indigo forms an inorganic-organic hybrid material with nanoclays (see picture; blue circles on disks symbolizing indigo, spheres indicating liberated cations) and can thus be transferred into aqueous solution. Solids recovered from these solutions resemble the ancient Maya Blue pigment. The method can also be applied to other hydrophobic species and may open the gate for...

Novel quinoxaline-based organic sensitizers using vertical (RC-21) and horizontal (RC-22) conjugation between an electron-donating triphenylamine unit and electron-accepting quinoxaline unit have been synthesized and used for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), leading to the relatively high power conversion efficiencies of 3.30 and 5.56% for RC-21 and RC-22, respectively. This result indicates...

Mesoporous amino-functionalized metal-organic framework thin films with the UiO-68 topology were grown in a highly oriented fashion on two different self-assembled monolayers on gold. The oriented MOF films were covalently modified with the fluorescent dye Rhodamine B inside the pore system, as demonstrated with size-selective fluorescence quenching studies. Our study suggests that mesoporous m...

The mechanism of Methylene Blue adsorption on acid activated carbon Vitex Negundo Stem (AAVNS) has been studied through batch experiments. Generally, dyes are organic compounds used as coloring products in chemical, textile, paper, printing, leather, plastics and various food industries. The need for the treatment of dye contaminated waste water passed out from the industry. In this study, Vite...
