... Relative rates of adsorption by gelatin and by wool have been determined for a number of series of sulfonated azo acid dyes and 2: 1 dye-metal complexes. It is shown that: (i) The rate of adsorption of each dye by a given area of the external surface of gelatin is about four times that by the same area of the external surface of wool; (ii) the logarithm of the rates falls linearly with both the nu ...
... Investigations were carried out to study the adsorption of Chlorazol Sky Blue FF on cotton fiber from aqueous solutions of 0.1 N LiCl, NaCl, KCl, RbCl, and CsCl. The dye uptake both at 50° and 60° increased markedly with increasing size of the alkali metal cation. The equilibrium dye adsorption could be described by a Langmuir-type equation. The calculated standard affinity of dye adsorption showe ...
... The method of continuous variations, using refractometry, shows that complexes form between sucrose in aqueous solution and non-azo aromatic sulfonates, but not between either sucrose or methyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (used as models of cellulose) and sulfonated azo dyes. Yoshida's method has been applied to determine thermodynamic parameters Entropy values of comllex formation are high, especially fo ...
... Two direct and two reactive dyes were applied on Cellophane by a method of preswelling and then solvent dyeing from a 1:1 mixture of dimethylformamide and perchloroethylene. For producing reactive dyeings, a new technique of preswelling with sodium carbonate solution was evolved. Absorption spectra of the dyes in aqueous solution, solvents mixture, and on Cellophane were examined to study the chan ...
... Bract fragments are thought to be a major component of the respirable dust generated during the processing of cotton (Gossypium sp.) lint in textile mills. Byssinosis is an occupational disease affecting susceptible textile workers exposed to respirable dust. Procedures designed to reduce mill dust require that the dust components be identified. The cotton bract is a candidate component. The objec ...

Abstract:
... Dust or white ash generated during fiber or fabric processing is a constant problem for manufacturers. This study examines dust formation, its characterization, and prevention during the treatment of PET fabrics. Dust is collected from three stages of PET fabric processing for detailed characterization—fiber texturing, fabric weight reduction, and fabric dyeing. IR and NMR are used to characterize ...
... Dyeing wastewater is an important class of pollutants, which can be identified by human's eye. The release of some dyes in water streams has serious environmental impacts. Nano-cellulose hybrids containing polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane with multi-N-methylol (R-POSS) could be used as novel biosorbents for dyes. Adsorption properties of nano-cellulose hybrid for reactive dyes from aqueous sol ...
... A powerful oxidation process using sulfate radicals activated by transition metal mediated Oxone process has been evaluated in depth by monitoring the degradation of a xanthene dye Rhodamine B (RhB) in aqueous solution. Ferrous ion was chosen as the transition metal due to its potential catalytic effect and wide availability in dyeing industrial effluent. The effects of parameters including reacta ...
... The photocatalytic degradation of hazardous dye Tropaeoline 000 has been investigated over anatase TiO₂ photocatalyst irradiated with a UV light. The effect of operational parameters i.e. dyes concentration, catalyst concentration, pH, temperature and electron acceptor hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) on the degradation rate of aqueous solution of dye has been examined. Results show that the employment of ...
... This study was aimed at using sugar extracted spent rice biomass (SRB) as a potential adsorbent to remove methylene blue (MB) dye from aqueous solution. The SRB was used without any modification. A three factor full factorial experimental design (2³) was employed to investigate the effect of factors (adsorbent dose, dye concentration, temperature) and their interaction on the adsorption capacity a ...
... Application of reactive dyes is very popular in textile industry as these dyestuffs are characterized by good fastness properties. Constapel et al in 2009 estimated the production of this type of dyes for over 140,000 Mg/year. The reactive dyes are mostly (50%) employed for coloration of cellulosic fibers, however they can also be applied on wool and nylon. Unfortunately, they possess a low degree ...

Abstract:
... Nanometer-sized TiO₂ particles prepared by hydrothermal precipitation method were first immobilized on the surface of wool fiber using tetrabutyl titanate, and then dyed with C.I. Reactive Blue 69. Scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermal gravimetric analyses were used to characterize the morphology, crystalline phase, chemical structure, and t ...
... Basic Violet 3 and Acid Blue 93 are the most important group of synthetic colourants extensively used in textile industries for dyeing cotton, wool, silk and nylon. Release of these dye pollutants in to the environment adversely affects the human health and aquatic organisms. The present study we used Pseudomonas putida MTCC 4910 for the adsorptive removal of Basic Violet 3 and Acid Blue 93 from t ...
... In this research work, dyeability of polypropylene (PP) fabrics due to laser irradiation was studied. The laser intensities used during the experiments were 3, 3.8, 4.2, and 4.8 W cm⁻². The morphology of the modified surfaces was investigated using scanning electron microscopy. Also, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to examine the functional groups of the corresponding samples. For ...

... The efficiency of chir pine sawdust (CPS) for adsorptive removal of the dyes, congo red (CR) and basic violet 1 (BV), from aqueous solution was evaluated using batch and column studies. The equilibrium was attained in 60 min for CR and 45 min for BV. The adsorption of BV obeyed the Langmuir isotherm model while the Freundlich isotherm fitted the equilibrium data of CR adsorption. The Langmuir mono ...
... N-[4-(triethylammoniomethyl)benzoyl]caprolactam chloride (TBCC) was used as a bleach activator for activation of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) in aqueous solution with the addition of sodium carbonate (NaHCO₃). The TBCC/H₂O₂/NaHCO₃ system was applied for treatment of cotton greige fabric at 60℃ in comparison with the conventional H₂O₂/NaOH system for treatment of cotton greige fabric at 95℃. Experiment ...

Abstract:
... Iron sludge, produced from filtration and backwash of groundwater treatment plant, has long been considered as a waste for landfill. In this study, iron sludge was reused to synthesize Fe3O4 magnetic particles (MPs) by using a novel solvothermal process. Iron sludge contained abundant amounts of silicon, iron, and aluminum and did not exhibit magnetic properties. After treatment for 4h, the amorph ...
... Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is one of the most important worldwide agricultural crops. Tomato fruits are rich in a plethora of natural antioxidant compounds including vitamins, phenolics, mainly flavonoids, and carotenoids, particularly lycopene. The demand for natural carotenoids is increasing because of (a) the broad commercial opportunities offered by such bioactive pigments due to their d ...
