Factors Influencing the Photocatalytic Degradation of Reactive Yellow 145 by TiO<sub>2</sub>-Coated Non-Woven Fibers

Abstract: The photocatalytic degradation of the synthetic textile dye Reactive Yellow 145 (RY 145) in aqueous solution, using TiO2 coated non-woven fibers as photocatalyst, under UV-lamp irradiation, was studied. The effects of the operational parameters such as initial dye concentration, pH, addition of oxidant hydrogen peroxide and addition of ethanol on the reaction rate were investigated. The effect of some inorganic ions such as

“…Effluents are filled with many types of ions and molecules which greatly modulate the rate of dye degradation (Senthilraja et al 2016). Ions such as Fe 2+ , Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , Al 3+ , Na + , K + , NH 4 + , Cl − , PO 4 3− , SO 4 2− , HCO 3 − and NO 3 − are generally present in wastewater (Alahiane et al 2014;Azzaz et al 2018;Isari et al 2018). Many of these are HO • and electron scavenging in nature, i.e.…”

“…Moreover, they have a low cost, highly soluble in water as anionic electrophiles and wide range of color can be given bright colors [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. There are many types of these dyes that have a general formula structure S-F-T-X, where, S is solubilizing group like SO 3 group, F is chromophore group like azo or aromatic ring groups, T is Bridge group such as sulphide, imino, oxide, ethyl & methyl groups and X is reactive group such as vinylsulfone and dichlorotriazine that are accountable to bound with cellulosic fibers [5] [6].…”

“…The photocatalyst was precipitated from the solution by applying an external magnet and then washed with distilled water and stored for further use. The efficiency of the photocatalytic degradation of the fabricated materials was calculated based on the degree of absorption in the absorption spectra of the dye solution with respect to the intensity corresponding to λ max of eosin Y (515 nm) by using the equation given below [ 56 58 ]: where C o is the initial concentration of the dye and C is the concentration of the dye after irradiation in a selected time interval. Parameters A o and A are the absorbance of eosin Y solutions in the 515 nm wavelength at the initial and at any time thereafter, respectively.…”
