Comparison on biodegradation of anionic dye orange II and cationic dye methylene blue by immobilized microorganisms on spent granular activated carbon
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2014-01)
Activated carbon adsorption and biological degradation are two important methods used in the treatment of industrial wastewater among others. The objective of this study is to investigate the biodegradation of anionic dye ...
Comprehensive review and compilation of treatment for azo dyes using microbial fuel cells
(Water Environment Federation, 2013-03)
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) represent an emerging technology that focuses on power generation and effluent treatment. This review compiles articles related to MFCs using azo dye as the substrate. The significance of the ...
Production of bioflocculant by staphylococcus cohnii ssp. from Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME)
(Springer Science+Business Media B.V., 2012-09)
Staphylococcus cohnii ssp. was found to produce a bioflocculant with high flocculating activity for kaolin suspension. Using optimized culture conditions, a flocculating activity of 70.3 % at a bioflocculation concentration ...
Simultaneous wastewater treatment and power generation with innovative design of an upflow membrane-less microbial fuel cell
(Springer International Publishing, 2015-05-01)
Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of an upflow membrane-less microbial fuel cell (UFML MFC) with various types of carbon material as cathodes in power output and chemical oxygen demand ...
Solar photocatalytic degradation of azo dye Reactive Black 5 in aqueous suspension of TiO2
(IWA Publishing, 2011)
Photocatalytic degradation of pollutants under solar light irradiation is an economically viable process and a very promising clean wastewater treatment technology. The aim of this study is to evaluate photocatalytic ...
Sorption of methylene blue and acid orange 7 onto ananas comosus peels and leaves based activated carbon
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
The adsorption of Methylene Blue (MB) and Acid Orange 7 (AO7) dye onto Ananas Comosus Mixed Peels and Leaves (ACMPL) were carried out by conducting four different parameters such as initial concentration, pH, dosage of ...
Evaluation on the molecular structure of azo dye in photocatalytic mineralization under solar light irradiation
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2015-08-21)
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of number of sulphonic groups on solar photocatalytic degradation of Acid Orange 7 (AO7), Orange G (OG), New Coccine (NC), Reactive Black 5 (RB5) and Reactive Green 19 ...
Decolorization of methyl orange using upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor-An investigation of co-substrate and dye degradation kinetics
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)
Decolorization of a synthetic wastewater containing Methyl Orange (MO) azo dye was performed in an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor. Color removal efficiencies approaching 94, 90 and 96% were obtained with ...
Evaluation of integrated anaerobic-aerobic biofilm reactor for degradation of azo dye methyl orange
(Elsevier Ltd., 2013-09)
This study was to investigate the mineralization of wastewater containing methyl orange (MO) in integrated anaerobic-aerobic biofilm reactor with coconut fiber as bio-material. Different aeration periods (3. h in phase 1 ...
Photocatalytic degradation of reactive black 5 by fish scale-loaded TiO 2 composites
(Springer Science+Business Media B.V., 2012-09)
Titania and TiO 2/fish scale composites at different mass ratios (90:10, 70:30, and 50:50) were prepared by sol-gel method for application as photocatalysts in this study. Fish scale, synthesized TiO 2, and TiO 2/fish scale ...
