Immobilizing of zero-valent iron in mono- and bi-metallic systems on the bentonite clay surface as new nanocatalyst were synthesized and used to degrade model acidic dyes from aqueous media. The Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis were ...

the present study was carried out to investigate the potential of carboxylate group functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnt−cooh) adsorbent for the removal of methyl orange (mo) textile dye from aqueous solutions. the effects of ph, shaking time and temperature on adsorption capacity were studied; the contact time to obtain equilibrium at 298 ˚k was fixed at 25 min. the effect of te...

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...

Accelerated bleaching and photobleaching of diluted solutions of Methyl Orange and other dyes occur only when Co2+-ions are present in solution mediating oxone (2KHSO5·KHSO4·K2SO4) decomposition. The bleaching of Methyl Orange, Orange II and Methylene Blue dyes in dilute solutions (0.01 mM) proceeds within a few minutes and occurs at biocompatible pH leading to a decrease in the toxicity of the...

Single phase anatase titania powders with size below 20 nm and surface area of 75 m /g were 2 synthesized by a simple precipitation method at pH 5 and dehydration of agglomerates by azeotropic distillation. The powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and BET surface area, after calcinations at 550°C for 3 hrs. This nanoparticles was used for...

Two sensitive spectrophotometric methods are presented for the assay of Repaglinide in bulkdrug and in formulations using methyl orange, as reagents. Oxidant by reacting with a fixedamount of either methyl orange and measuring the absorbance at 485.2 nm (method-I) andmeasuring the absorbance at 618.9 nm (method-II). Developed method is based on the formationof extractable colored complex of dru...

The binding of T-1824 (Evans blue) with plasma has been extensively studied in the past by Allen and Orahovats (1) by means of the cellophane sorption method. Although this approach yielded excellent results, a simpler and more direct method seemed desirable. The basis for this new method is furnished by the observation, made in 1939,’ that the free T-1824 gives rise to a distinct polarographic...

This study optimises the degradation of a cocktail of the dyes methyl orange and bromothymol blue by atmospheric air plasma. Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to investigate the efficacy of the plasma process parameters on degradation efficiency. A Box-Behnken design (BBD) was employed to optimise the degradation of dyes by air plasma discharge. A second order polynomial equation ...
