Removal of color from effluents using polyamide–epichlorohydrin‐cellulose polymer. II. Use in acid dye removal

Abstract

SYNOPSISThe ability of polyamide-epichlorohydrin-cellulose ( PAE-cell) to remove various acid dyes from aqueous solutions was investigated. The classes of acid dyes included the milling type, levelling type, and metal-complex type. Operational conditions such as PAE-cell type, dye type, PAE-cell particle size, dye bath flow rate, filling density in the column, initial dye concentration, pH of solution, and adsorbent mass were studied. The results show that these PAE-cell polymers exhibit better capacity for acid dye removal than some commercial activated carbons. 0 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Functionalization of Microcrystalline Cellulose with N,N-dimethyldodecylamine for the Removal of Congo Red Dye from an Aqueous Solution

“…In addition, they can effectively remove metal ions and some organic compounds from wastewater (Cai et al 2013). Cellulose has been used in the removal of colored matter from dye wastewater (Hwang and Chen 1993). In addition, some adsorption materials obtained from cellulosebased waste products have also been used for the adsorption of dyes, including sawdust (Ofomaja 2008), rice husk (Zou et al 2011), wheat shell (Vieira et al 2009), and banana and orange peel (Annadurai et al 2002).…”

Genotoxicity studies on the removal of a direct textile dye by a fungal strain, in vivo, using micronucleus and RAPD‐PCR techniques on male rats

“…Color removal from textile effluents has been the target of great attention in the past few years, not only because of its potential toxicity, but mainly due to its visibility problems (Yu-Li and Thomas, 1995;Morais et al, 1999). Recent estimates indicate that approximately 12% of synthetic textile dyes used each year is lost during manufacture and processing operations and 20% of these lost dyes enter the environment through effluents that result from the treatment of industrial wastewaters (Hwang and Chen, 1993;Nawar and Doma, 1989). The treatment of dye wastewater involves chemical and physical methods such ; (e) represents PCR products with primer D01; (f) represents PCR products with primer D03.…”

R emoval of Cationic Dye – Methylene Blue - from Aque ous Solution by Adsorption on Fly Ash - based Geopolymer

“…The experimental data of MB adsorption on FAG were simulated with three models and the results were depicted in Table 5. The correlation coefficients (R 1 2 ) for pseudo-first-order kinetic model are between 0.718 and 0.926, the correlation coefficients (R 2 2 ), for the pseudo -second-order kinetic model are between 0.99 and 1 and the correlation coefficients (R 3 2 ) for intraparticle diffusion model are between 0.513 and 0.993. On the basis of value R 2 , the pseudo second order rate model fit best with experimental data.…”
