Investigation of adsorption properties of modified DD kaolins to microporous material type 13X zeolite in treatment of textile industry effluent: experiments and theoretical approach

The textile industry has experienced significant advances accompanied by the production of large volumes polluted water released into environment, which requires treatment that varies according to nature pollutants. present work aimed at testing 13X type zeolites synthesized from Djebel Debagh DD1, DD2, and DD3 kaolins in order remove dyes other pollutants effluent COTITEX (Batna, Algeria). Several experimental parameters were studied (pH, temperature, initial concentration, mass adsorbent) physicochemical characterization was carried out on adsorbents be treated. characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Adsorption experiments performed anionic dye real effluent. results showed adsorption is efficient feasible ambient temperature zeolite DD1 kaolin compared with DD2 DD3, good color removal efficiency. Experiments wastewater a improvement characteristics (COD, BOD5, TSS, PO43−, NO2−) untreated
