Reactive dye extraction utilizing regenerated bleaching earth

Adsorption of ethyl violet dye in aqueous solution by regenerated spent bleaching earth.

The adsorption of basic dye (i.e., ethyl violet or basic violet 4) from aqueous solution onto the regenerated spent bleaching earth (RSBE) was carried out by varying the process parameters such as initial concentration, pH, and temperature. As analytical comparisons, activated bleaching earth (ABE) was also used as adsorbent for the adsorption of the basic dye at various initial concentrations....

Micelle-Mediated Extraction and Spectrophotometric Determination of Ammonia in Water Samples utilizing Indophenol Dye Formation

Foi investigado um processo de extração rápido, seletivo e sensível por ponto nuvem para extrair o indofenol, formado na reação de Berthelot com amônia, a partir de soluções aquosas. Utilizou-se a mistura do surfactante não iônico, Triton X-114, e do catiônico, brometo de cetiltrimetilamônio (CTAB). O método foi baseado na cor do corante indofenol produzido pela reação da amônia com fenol em me...

Bleaching and diffusion dynamics in optofluidic dye lasers

Reuse of spent bleaching earth by polymerisation of residual organics.

Spent bleaching earth (SBE) is a waste generated by the edible oil industry that currently has limited options for beneficial reuse. In excess of ∼2 million tonnes per year of SBE is generated world-wide with major quantities available in the middle-east where significant volumes of edible oils are produced. Low pressure compaction followed by heat treatment at 150°C causes polymerisation of th...

The Effect of Different Concentrations of Activated Carbon with Bleaching Earth During Bleaching Process on Physicochemical Properties of Soybean Oil

Considering the importance of bleaching earth with activated carbon in reduction of impurities in vegetable oils, this study was conducted to investigate the effects of bleaching process on physicochemical properties of the bleached soybean oil. The bleaching process was carried out with bleaching earth (1 % w/w) containing different concentrations of activated carbon (0.1 % up to 0.5 % w/w). T...

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...
