Indigo is one of the most consumed dyes in the textile sector, as it is widely used for the dyeing of denim clothes. About 15% of indigo used in the dyeing process is discharged to the wastewater treatment plants or sometimes into rivers, in countries where regulations are not strictly applied. In this work, real effluents that contained indigo dye were treated by means of 4 different ultrafilt...

This paper presents the influence of Hybrane H 1500 as a hyperbranched polymer on kinetic parameters of dyeing compounded fiber grade PET polyethylene terephthalate at boil temperature. C.I. Disperse Red 324 as a disperse dye was used for dyeing compounded fiber grade PET. The result was compared with corresponding properties of virgin PET. The dyeing rate constants and diffusion coefficients a...

The present work deals with the ways of testing the compatibility of reactive dyes with cotton in different textile industries in Bangladesh. This report includes three laboratory trials that were carried out for three different reactive dyes to check the compatibility for use in a dye recipe on cotton knitted goods. In this study, Spectrophotometric analysis was conducted and the fixation of e...

Trametes hirsuta and a purified laccase from this organism were able to degrade triarylmethane, indigoid, azo, and anthraquinonic dyes. Initial decolorization velocities depended on the substituents on the phenolic rings of the dyes. Immobilization of the T. hirsuta laccase on alumina enhanced the thermal stabilities of the enzyme and its tolerance against some enzyme inhibitors, such as halide...

The separation of reactive, sulfur, and vat dyes from cotton dyeing effluent was investigated by a coagulation process using a cationic polymer electrolyte (PE). The coagulation of dyes was found to be considerably influenced by the amount of added PE and pH of the effluent. High degree of separation, (i.e.-90-99%) could be achieved for all the dyes. The secondary treatment of the PE treated (p...

This paper discusses the performance modeling and availability analysis of Yarn Dyeing System of a Textile Industry. The Textile Industry is a complex and repairable engineering system. Yarn Dyeing System of Textile Industry consists of five subsystems arranged in series configuration. For performance modeling and analysis of availability, a performance evaluating model has been developed with ...

The aim of the study was to investigate dyeing conditions that are appropriate for sedge fi bers with natural indigo dye as they usually do not absorb water. conditioning is therefore essential in order improve their water and color absorption properties. process included soaking 1, 2, 3, 4, 5% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) ratio solution (a liquor ratio) 50:1 24 hours. conditioned were analysed func...

The present study focuses on the improvement in the effluent treatment for the effluent generated from a cotton textile industry employing three reactive dyeing methods viz., Exhaust method, Pad-Dry-Cure method, and Pad-Batch method. Stabilisation pond, aeration tank, and aerobic biological treatment (using E-Coli type bacteria) are simulated in the laboratory in a series operation. Results rev...

The enormous usage of synthetic dyes in various industries, chiefly textiles and paper industries, has posed a considerable health and environmental hazard. This dictates the need for amendment in the textile coloration technology by using natural origin pigments to replace the existing toxic, mutagenic and teratogenic dyes. Therefore, the scientists have recently focused their attention on app...

Work summarized in this final report covering three years of research includes: 1) A method for real-time monitoring of disperse dye exhaustion on polyester and acetate; 2) A method for realtime monitoring of both reactive dye exhaustion and hydrolysis; 3) A comparison of a newly developed method for real-time monitoring of indigo with the conventional titrametric method; 4) Models of direct dy...
