Decolorization of synthetic azo dye solution of Congo red dye, as an anionic dye was studied in a batch reactor using Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP). Congo red has been selected amongst azo dyes due to its high solubility in aquatic environment. AOP is effectively removing color in azo dye wastewater due to its strong oxidizing property by breaking down the functional group that impacting col...

The objective of this project was to biologically renovate reactive dyebaths and reuse the high-salt containing mixture in the dyeing process. This approach accomplishes two goals: (a) elimination of the color from the plant effluent; and (b) reuse of the renovated process water and salts, thus leading to final wastewater volume reduction, and water, as well as salt conservation. Nine commercia...

Lysinibacillus sphaericus D3 cell-immobilized beads in natural gel sodium alginate decolorized the xylidine orange dye 1-(dimethylphenylazo)-2-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid sodium salt in the laboratory. Optimal conditions were selected for decolorization and the products formed were evaluated for toxicity by disc diffusion assay against common marine bacteria which revealed the non-toxic nature of ...

Biodegradation and detoxification of dyes, Malachite green, Nigrosin and Basic fuchsin have been carried out using two fungal isolates Aspergillus niger, and Phanerochaete chrysosporium, isolated from dye effluent soil. Three methods were selected for biodegradation, viz. agar overlay and liquid media methods; stationary and shaking conditions at 25 °C. Aspergillus niger recorded maximum decolo...

the decolorization of maxilon-red dye by kissiris immobilized phanerochaete chrysosporium in the trickle-bed reactor (tbr) using the basal nitrogen-limited growth medium was studied. the influence of the superficial liquid velocity (slv) on the decolorizing ability of the fungus was examined at four slvs (cm sec-1): 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, and 0.15. maximum level of the decolorizing activity was abou...

conclusions the uv/zno system has been found an effective process with 90.2% cod removal and 95.6% dye removal after 50 minutes treatment. materials and methods in this work, zno catalyst and mercury lamp (uv-c, 254 nm) have been applied for removal of the c.i. sulphur red 14 dye from aqueous environments. the influence of various parameters such as the amount of zno, initial dye concentration,...

Background: Dyes can cause many problems in environment. Therefore, removal of these contaminants before discharging wastewater to environment can reduce the environmental hazards. Adsorption is one of the usual processes for decolorizing from wastewater. Nanotubes are new adsorbents that can adsorb different compounds. This work aimed to investigate Acid violet 17 dye removal by adsorption usi...

The biodegradation of synthetic dyes by fungi is emerging as an effective and promising approach. In the present study, freshwater fungal strains isolated from submerged woods were screened for the decolorization of 7 synthetic dyes. Subsequently, 13 isolates with high decolorization capability were assessed in a liquid system; they belonged to 9 different fungal species. Several strains exhibi...

In this study, the optimization of working cathode position in sleeve-type bioelectrochemical system (BES) was evaluated with inner/outer chamber for azo dye decolorization. Results showed that the working position in outer chamber performed better with decolorization efficiencies of 97.8 ± 2.1% (7h) and 94.0 ± 2.3% (16 h) than that in inner chamber as the volume ratio Vcathode:Vanode=1:1 and 3...
