In the present study, the photocatalytic treatment of two synthetic textile dyehouse effluents was investigated. The first synthetic effluent (SE1) is a Remazol Black B aqueous solution, while the second one (SE2) is an aqueous mixture of sixteen dyes and auxiliary chemicals that are usually employed in the textile industry. Various illumination sources were studied, while emphasis was given on...

In this research, the effects of different color intensities, anoxic + anaerobic times and types of substrate on color removal effectiveness were studied using 16-litre bench scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR) anoxic + anaerobic/aerobic models. The systems were fed with a synthetic wastewater containing 500 mg/l of COD, 50 mg/l of N, 15 mg/l of P along with 10, 40 and 80 mg/l of reactive diaz...

The Taguchi method was applied as an experimental design to determine optimum conditions for colour removal from azo dyes solutions containing remazol yellow G by electrocoagulation (EC) using iron and steel electrodes as anode and cathode, respectively. An orthogonal array (OA9) experimental design that allows to investigation the simultaneous variations of four parameters (initial remazol ye...

Dye photodegradation using ozone and Nickel ferrite nanoparticle (NFN) as a photocatalyst was studied. The catalyst was synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, SEM and XRD. Textile dyes including Remazol Red RB (RRRB) and Direct Green B (DGB) were degraded as model compounds. Dye degradation was investigated using UV–Vis and ion chromatography (IC) analyses. The effect of catalyst dosage, pH, s...

Batang ubi kayu merupakan limbah hasil pertanian yang memiliki kandungan selulosa sehingga berpotensi diolah menjadi arang aktif. Arang aktif dapat digunakan untuk menjerap zat warna salah satunya wara remazol red. Remazol Red satu banyak dipakai industri tekstil. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui daya serap serta efisiensi dari proses adsorpsi dan menentukan tipe isoterm dengan menggunakan b...

The white rot fungi Stereum ostrea displayed a wide diversity in their response to supplemented inducers, surfactants, and copper sulphate in solid state fermentation. Among the inducers tested, 0.02% veratryl alcohol increased the ligninolytic enzyme production to a significant extent. The addition of copper sulphate at 300 μM concentration has a positive effect on laccase production increasin...
