abstract background and purpose:the main objectives of this research were to evaluating the application of electrocoagulation process for 198 dye from the aqueous phase and determining the optimum operating conditions to the dye removal using aluminum and iron electrodes. materials and methods:the present study was conducted in bench-scale. the spectrophotometer dr 5000 was used to determine th...

Removal of Reactive Black 5 (RB5) dye from an aqueous solution was studied by its adsorption on banana peel biochars (BPBs). The factors affecting RB5 such as pH, exposure time, concentration, adsorbent dose, particle size and temperature were investigated. Maximum 97% removal obtained at pH 3 with 75 mg/L adsorbate concentration biochars. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) scanning electron mic...

Dye-containing wastewater generated from textile industries is a major source of environmental pollution. Azo dyes, which are the largest group of coloring agents, are widely used in industries.This research investigated the photocatalytic decolorization and degradation of an azo dye Reactive Red 198 (RR198) in aqueous solution with TiO2-P25 (Degussa) as photocatalyst in slurry form using UV li...

Sodium hydrosulfite is conventionally used for the color stripping of reactive dyes in textile industry. However, research has been focused on eco-friendly processes to reduce wastewater generation recent years. This study aimed at estimating efficacy ozone according dyes’ chromophore groups. The dyed cotton-knitted fabric with three that have phthalocyanine (Reactive blue 21), diazo black 5) a...

Glucokinase from Bacillus stearothermophilus was irreversibly inactivated by the reactive dichlorotriazinyl dye Procion Blue MX-3G at pH 8.0. The enzyme was protected from inactivation by the substrate MgATP. Kinetic data implied that the dye occupied the MgATP-binding site. The apparent Km values for MgATP and D-glucose were found to be 70 microM and 210 microM respectively, and the Kd of the ...

BACKGROUND Hairdressers are occupationally and personally exposed to hair dye substances and adverse reactions from the skin are well known. Currently, little is known about personal exposure to hair dye ingredients and temporary black tattoos. OBJECTIVES To investigate hairdressers' professional and personal risk exposures and to compare the frequency of temporary tattoos among hairdressers ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the reactive dye structure and type of penetrant in ink formulation on paper ink-jet printing. Different type of papers, which have same grammage was printed upon with three commercial reactive dyes, CI Reactive Blue 49 Ink 1, 4, CI Reactive Blue 21 Ink 2, Ink 5 and CI Reactive Blue 19 Ink 3, Ink 6, which are based on different reactive...

A novel titanium dioxide paste based on Pechini sol-gel method and nanocrystalline TiO2 powder has been successfully developed and tested. The paste enables the formation of sponge like structure of the TiO2 layer i.e. highly porous and at the same time well connected TiO2 network. The layers have been used to assemble dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC) with two ruthenium complex based dyes, N71...

Thirteen-week subchronic toxicity studies of direct blue 6, direct black 38, and direct brown 95 dyes were conducted by administering the test chemicals in feed to Fischer 344 rats and B6C3F1 mice. Groups of 10 rats and 10 mice of each sex were administered one of the three dyes at one of five concentrations for 13 weeks and then necropsied, beginning the second day after the end of the dosing ...
