in this work, response surface methodology (rsm) and artificial neural network (ann) were used to predict the decolorization efficiency of reactive red 33 (rr 33) by o3/uv process in a bubble column reactor. the effects of four independent variables including time (20-60 min), superficial gas velocity (0.06-0.18 cm/s), initial concentration of dye (50-150 ppm) and ph (3-11) were investigated us...

The aim was to assess the ability of microcosms (laboratory-scale shallow ponds) as a post polishing stage for the remediation of artificial textile wastewater comprising two commercial dyes (basic red 46 (BR46) and reactive blue 198 (RB198)) as a mixture. The objectives were to evaluate the impact of Lemna minor L. (common duckweed) on the water quality outflows; the elimination of dye mixture...

<p>In this study, the basic fusion dye was adsorbed from wastewater using turmeric leaf waste biochar and experimental outcomes were fitted with isotherm kinetics. Further, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) also performed to analyse concurrent interactive effects of process variables. Pyrolysis biomass resulted in yield 44.65% at temperature 300 °C. The had moisture content 4.21%, volati...

This research presents adsorption potential of surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulphate; SDS) coated magnetite nanoparticles as suitable and efficient adsorbent for the removal of Basic Blue 41 (BB 41), as a cationic dye from textile’s company wastewater. The effects of various experimental parameters (e.g. initial pH of the solution, SDS amount, and ionic strength) on the adsorption efficiency of B...

The biosorption performance of raw cone shell of Calabrian pine for C.I. Basic Red 46 as a model azo dye from aqueous system was optimized using Taguchi experimental design methodology. L9 (3(3)) orthogonal array was used to optimize the dye biosorption by the pine cone shell. The selected factors and their levels were biosorbent particle size, dye concentration, and contact time. The predicted...

backgroud and purpose: dye is one of the problems of industrial effluent such as textile industries. the dyes can be removed by various methods. therefore, the aim of this study was the evaluation of adsorption rate of reactive red 198 from aqueous solution by activated red mud. materials and methods: this research was a lab study. activated red mud was used as an adsorbent to remove reactive r...

This study examined how forest edges, fruit display size, and fruit colour influenced rates of seed dispersal in an endemic, bird-dispersed, New Zealand mistletoe species, Alepis flavida. To examine rates of seed dispersal, fruit removal rates were compared between plants growing on forest edges and in forest interior, and also between two morphs of plants with different coloured fruits. Two as...

The applications of bioabsorbable implants in orthopaedic surgery have mainly been mandated from the need to eliminate implant removal operations. Although they have not gained widespread popularity among orthopaedic surgeons, they still represent an area of evolution. Considerable effort has been put into developing new bioabsorbable materials with fewer adverse effects. In this article an ext...

The effects of small-scale disturbances (80 30-cm plots) of canopy and grazers on intertidal assemblages were investigated in this 4-year experiment on sheltered rocky shores on the Swedish west coast. Canopy disturbances due to ice scouring were mimicked by removal of adult plants of the seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum (L.) Le Joli. Density of the main epilithic grazing gastropods, Littorina spp.,...
