Green banking refers to the banking business conducted in such areas and in such a manner that helps the overall reduction of external carbon emission and internal carbon footprint. To aid the reduction of external carbon emission and reduce global warming,, banks should finance green technology and pollution reducing projects. Change is the need of this hour although, banking is never considered a polluting industry, the present scale of banking operations have considerably increased the carbon footprint of banks due to their massive use of energy (e.g., lighting, air conditioning, electronic/electrical equipments, IT, etc), high paper wastage, lack of green buildings, etc. The study is conducted to evaluate the awareness of green banking, and level of green banking concept spread among the customers. The analysis made shows that ICICI bank and SBI bank are the two banks which provide major green banking services to its customers. Educational qualification has greater impact on usage of green banking facilities.
Aim: To remove the colour and COD of two reactive dyes namely reactive blue and yellow by Fenton and modified Fenton processes. Materials and Methods: The total number of groups used in this study is two (Control group N = 16 and Experimental group N = 16).The sample size was taken as 16 after being calculated for a pre-test power of 80% with an alpha value of 0.05 in clinical.com. The removal of colour and COD of two reactive dyes by Fenton process and modified fenton process was carried out. Results and Discussion: Colour removal upto 90% and 95% by Fenton and modified Fenton Processes respectively. The best COD removal efficiencies were 65.54 %, and 57.92% in the case of reactive yellow and reactive blue dyes in the Modified Fenton Process respectively. In the modified fenton process steel scrap is replaced instead of FeSO4. Conclusion: Compared to the Fenton process, the modified Fenton process has more percentage of colour and COD removal within the limits of the study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
