Abstract:

In this study, we used advanced oxidation process (AOP)for the removal of a cationic and anionic blue dyes, namely Basic Blue 3 (BB3) and Acid blue 62(AB62), from aqueous solutions. Fenton reactions are mixture of H2 O2 and Fe2+. However this paper investigates the application of twelve different catalysts such as: FeCl2 , FeSO4, (NH4 )Fe(SO4 )2 , FeCl3 , Nano iron (Fe0 ), Fe(NO3 )3 , K2FeO4 , Nano Silver (Ag̊ ), Nano ZnO, Zn(NO3 )2 , Nano Al2O3 andAl2 (SO4 )3 , with the H2 O2 . The formed hydroxyl radicals led to the oxidative degradation of BB3& AB62. The results show that the optimum amounts of reagent was 5.6 mg/L as a metal catalyst and 30mM of H2O2 for an initial dye concentration at 50 mg/L. The percentremoval of dye were found to be strongly influenced by the increasing of the oxidant and metal catalyst up to a certain value. It was found that the maximum removal of dye (up to 99.9%.) was enhanced using pH = 3.The best catalyst for the decomposition of AB62 dye was FeCl2 and for BB3 dye wasNH4Fe(SO4 )2 .The correlation coefficient (R2 ) obtained from first order reaction model were found to be higher than 0.98 for both investigated dyes. Comparing the results shows that the removal of AB62 is more feasible compare with BB3.

Removal of Cationic Dyes from Aqueous Solution using Organomodified Nanoclay

In this work, organomodified nanoclay has been used as the adsorbent for the removal ofbasic blue 41, cationic dye from an aqueous solution. The performance of the organomodified nanoclay was tested in a batch system under varying pH (2–12), adsorbent dosage (0.1–2 g L-1), initial dye concentration (10–60 mgL-1), and contact time (5- 100 min). The best conditions were achieved at pH of 7,...

Removal of Anionic Brown 14 and Cationic Blue 41 dyes via Fenton Process

Textile wastewater contains a number of dyes which are known to be toxic and carcinogenic. In this study the results show that the Fenton (Fe2+/H2O2) process is an efficient method for the removal of Acid Brown 14 (A.BR14) and Cationic Blue 41 (C.B41) dyes from textile wastewater. In this method, two reagents Fe2+and H2O2 are used and do not require any additional energy. Several experiment...

Decolorization of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Solution Using Ultrasonic / Fenton Like Process (RESEARCH NOTE)

Docolorization of Methylene Blue was investigating using a Ultrasonic/Fenton like reactor in batch mode. The effects of pH, reaction time, initial concentration of dye, H2O2 and Fe on the dye removal was studied. It was found that the increase of initial dye and H2O2 concentration and the increase of initial pH, are not beneficial for improving the dye removal efficiency. Increasing the dye con...
