Decolorization of simulated spent reactive dye bath using solar / TiO2 / H2O2
Journal Title: International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology - Year 2005, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Different parameters were investigated to evaluate their effect on the process removal efficiency of reactive dye from simulated spent reactive dye bath, by solar / TiO2 / H2O2, including H2O2 concentration, TiO2 loading and pH. As a result 99% of reactive dye can be removed at a TiO2 loading of 400mg/l, H2O2 concentration of 150 mg/l and of pH: 5.2. The effect of photo-catalytic deactivation of TiO2 on reactive dye removal was studied for ten number of cycles, and found that the extent of deactivation was high for each consecutive repeated use.

Dietary overlap between invasion ctenophora (M . leidyi ) and anchovy (C. engrauliformis) in the southern parts of Caspian Sea
Mnemiopsis leidyi, native to America, Invaded the Caspian Sea in 1999. By the end of 2000, the entire sea was accupied with them. In parallel, a sharp decline in pelagic fish such accurrred.This survey was studied the re...
Origin and chemical partitioning of heavy metals in riverbed sediments
In the present investigation, bulk and chemical partitioning of elements in the Shefa-Rud riverbed sediments are studies. Higher concentrations of elemental concentrations have been observed in estuarine zone when compar...
Unplanned urbanization: Assessment through calculation of environmental degradation index<br />
Urbanization is an inevitable phenomena for the country like Bangladesh. The push and pull factors help to migrate people from rural area to urban area. As a result haphazard and unplanned urbanization create environment...
Modeling the dynamics of the freshwater-saltwater interface in response to construction activities at a coastal site
A numerical model was developed to evaluate the response of groundwater flow and the fresh-saltwater interface in relation to the construction of a particle accelerator at the coastal plain of Tokaimura, Japan. Undisturb...
Numerical Modeling of Persian Gulf Salinity Variations Due to Tidal Effects
Numerical modeling of salinity changes in marine environment of Persian Gulf is investigated in this paper. Computer simulation of the problem is performed by the solution of a convection-diffusion equation for salinity...
