Synthetic dyes are integral part of many industrial products. The effluents generated from textile dyeing units create major environmental problems and issues both in public and textile units. Industrial wastewater treatment is one of the major problems in the present scenario. Though, the physical and chemical methods offer some solutions to the problems, it is not affordable by the unit opera...

Pseudomonas sp. JHN decolourized and biotransformed 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol (4C2NP) in the presence of additional carbon source. The effect of the various concentrations of the 4C2NP was studied on the decolourization of 4C2NP by Pseudomonas sp. JHN. It was observed that strain JHN decolourized and biotransformed 4C2NP up to concentration of 0.6 mM. Gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass...

Rice husk carbon (RHC) has been prepared from rice husk impregnated with 50% H3P04 and carbonised at 300°C. Its adsorption capacity has been tested for the decolourization of wastewater containing safranine and methylene blue. The effect of system variables such as concentration, temperature, pH, contact time, adsorbent dosage and particle size are investigated. Removal of dye has been found to...

Phytoremediation is an eco-friendly and non destructive method of dye removal from water and soil. In this research study, phytoremediation potential of a macroalgae Chara vulgaris was investigated as a viable biomaterial for biological treatment of congo red in aqueous solution. The effects of parameters such as reaction time, pH, initial dye concentration, temperature and amount of algae on b...

Abstract The decolourization of an aqueous solution the textile dye Acid Red 88 (AR88) and control invasive plant species Acacia dealbata Link . (ADL) were addressed in this work. aims study (1) characterization ADL pollen, (2) application pollen powder adsorption processes, (3) selection best operational conditions for nitriloacetic acid (NTA)-UV-A-Fenton process (4) assess efficiency combined...

Chitosan is a biocompatible, biodegradable, non-toxic, antibacterial, antioxidant, and antifungal natural polymer. In this study, chitin chitosan were chemically isolated from the exoskeleton of invasive swimming crab Charybdis longicollis. order to obtain chitin, demineralization, deproteinization, decolourization steps applied samples. was prepared by deacetylation at high temperatures. The c...
