The presence of synthetic dyes in textile wastewater is a problematic issue for environmentalist. Nowadays, dye removal is practiced via different methods. Among all these methods, biodecolorization is an ideal technique. The present research apples vermicompost microflora to remove reactive black- C, pH = 7, and under anaerobic condition. At 36h, removal efficiencies of 94.79%, 94.06%, and 93....

The Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) was used to investigate the electrochemical behavior of alizarin yellow R and some analogous arylazo compounds having almost the same central azo group. For this purpose, the substances chosen for the measurements are Alizarin Yellow R (AYR), Eriochrome Black T (EBT) and Sudan II (SUD II). The investigations were carried out at room temperature (298 K) in both aqueou...

The magnetic NiFe2O4 nanoparticles have been synthesized and used as adsorbents for removal of an azo dye, Eriochrome black-T (EBT) from aqueous solution. The NiFe2O4 nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR). The adsorption studies were carried out under v...

Simple, accurate, precise, and rapid extractive spectrophotometric method was developed for the estimation of gatifloxacin (I) and cefotaxime sodium (II) in both pure and pharmaceutical dosage forms. The method was based on the formation of colored complex by the drugs with Eriochrome black-T in an acidic medium. The ion-associated complex formed was quantitatively extracted under the experimen...

An extractive spectrophotometric method is described for the assay of sitagliptin phosphate in bulk drug and in tablets. Sitagliptin phosphatewas extracted as an ion-pair complex from the solution containing Eriochrome black T and 0.1N HCl into chloroform and the absorbance of the complex was measured at 500nm.The working conditions of the method were investigated and optimized. Beer’s law plot...

Controlled shape and size with tuneable band gap (1.92-2.41 eV), nickel sulphide NPs was achieved in presence of thiourea or thioacetamide as sulphur sources with the variations of temperature and capping agents. Synthesized NPs were fully characterized by powder XRD, IR, UV-vis, DRS, FE-SEM, TEM, EDX, XPS, TGA and BET. Capping agent, temperature and sulphur sources have significant role in con...

EBT is a carcinogenic azo-compound. It is well known that EBT has chelating properties. Therefore, EBT has been widely used for the determination of calcium, magnesium, manganese, zinc, zirconium, nickel, copper, thulium and cobalt1−5. Literature surveys have shown that extensive polarographic, spectroscopic and colorimetric studies on some metal complexes with EBT have been carried out4−13. Th...

An extraction-spectrophotometric method for the determination of traces of copper (II) is described. The method is based on the quantitative extraction of copper as tetrabutylammonium tetrathiocyanato copper (II) into methyl isobutyl ketone, followed by spectrophotometric determination, using eriochrome black T as a metallochromic indicator. The red-violet mixed complex of copper absorbs at...
