Treatment of Water Contaminated with Reactive Black-5 Dye by Carbon Nanotubes

Removal of Reactive Black 5 dye from Aqueous Solutions by Adsorption onto Activated Carbon of Grape Seed

Background and purpose: The control of environmental pollution especially the pollution of water resources is one of the main challenges of researchers throughout the world. So, this study aimed to investigate the efficiency of reactive black 5 dye removal from aqueous solutions by adsorption onto activated carbon of grape seed. Materials and Methods: At first, the grape seed adsorbents were p...

Biodegradation of Reactive Dye Reactive Violet 5 by Bacteria Isolated from Dye Contaminated Soil

The Pseudomonas aeruginosa GSM3 isolated from dye contaminated soil was able to degrade Reactive Violet 5 completely as a sole source of carbon (300 mgL) within 20 h under static condition. The organism exhibited good decolorization ability in the pH ranges from 5.0 to 9.0 and temperature from 30 to 40C respectively. The optimum degradation was observed at 37C and pH 7. The maximum concentratio...

Adsorption Behaviour of Reactive Black Dye 5 by Magnetically Separable Nano-adsorbent

Dyes in the textile industry are the most significant source of pollutants, which cause damaging effects to people’s health. Reactive black 5 (RD5) is an anionic color that is currently used in the textile industry. This study is designed to provide the strategies to synthesize and characterize the new family of functionalized magnetite nanoparticles via a chemical co-precipitation method with ...

Degradation of Azo Dye Reactive Black 5 and Acid Orange 7 by Fenton-Like Mechanism

Evaluation of efficiency of copper-nickel ferrite nanoparticles loaded onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes in activation of peroxymonosulfate for degradation of reactive black dye 5 from aqueous solutions

Background and Aim: The development of industry has recently led to the release of 2 × 105 tons of colored wastewater into the environment. The presence of these solutions due to their toxicity and carcinogenic potential can be a threat to human health. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency of MWCNTs-CuNiFe2O4 nanocomposite in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for degradatio...
