This paper, as part of a study carried out for the recovery of the acid dye bath wastewaters of a carpet manufactuting industry by membrane processes, describes the evaluation of alternative strategies for the pre-treatment of acid dye bath wastewaters. Dead-end microfiltration (MF) simulating sand filtration with MF media having pore sizes of 2.5. 1.0. 0.45 and 0.2 mu m and ultrafiltration (UF) with an UF membrane having a molecular weight cut off (MWCO) of 50,000 Da were tested in single and sequential stages in order to achieve the best treatment efficiency. Four alternative process trains were tested: single MF, sequential MF, single UF, and MF followed by UF. For both.MF and UF application of sequential filtration did not provide any significant benefit over single processes. In addition. chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal performance of all the alternative processes was similar where the highest removal was only 5%. On the other hand. color removals were much better: ranging front 15 to 100%. even with single ME Comparison of all the process alternatives revealed that. single MF (0.45 mu m). as the simplest process. is the most suitable pre-treatment method for the acid dye bath wastewaters.

Process optimization on clean water recovery from real reactive dyeing effluents by nanofiltration Koçer Oruç, Burcu; Yetiş, Ülkü; Çulfaz Emecen, Pınar Zeynep; Department of Environmental Engineering (2017) Clean water recovery from the reactive dyeing effluent of a cotton textile mill with membrane filtration was investigated. Lab-scale experiments were performed with wastewater samples taken from the last three steps of the dyeing line, comprising four sequential baths of dyeing, warm rinsing, washing with soap, and lukewarm rinsing. Waste dyeing bath was deliberately excluded considering its extremely high salt and color contents. Two sets of experiments were performed; direct nanofiltration (NF) and NF wit...
Catalytic ozonation with non-polar bonded alumina phases for treatment of aqueous dye solutions in a semi-batch reactor Erol, Funda; Ozbelge, Tuelay A. (2008-06-01) Semi-batch experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of catalyst type, pH, initial dye concentration and production rate of ozone on the catalytic ozonation of the dyes, namely Acid Red-151 (AR-151) and Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR). The used catalysts were alumina, 25% (w/w) perfluorooctyl alumina (PFOA), 50% (w/w) PFOA and 100% (w/w) PFOA. The results showed that the overall percent dye removal after 30 min of the reaction was not affected significantly by the catalyst type. However, highest...
Recovery and reuse of indigo dyeing wastewater using membrane technology Uzal, Niğmet; Yetiş, Ülkü; Department of Environmental Engineering (2007) The objective of this study is to develop a membrane-based generic treatment scheme for wastewaters of indigo dyeing process of denim industry, based on water reuse. For this purpose, firstly the performances of microfiltration (MF), coagulation, and ultrafiltration (UF) processes were evaluated as pretreatment alternatives and the best pretreatment alternatives appeared to be single stage 5 m MF and sequential 5 m MF followed by 100 kDa UF providing high permeation rate and high color retention. These two ...
Treatment of Tectilon Yellow 2G by Chlorella vulgaris EBRU, acuner; Dilek, Filiz Bengü (2004-01-01) Treatment of mono-azo dye, tectilon yellow 2G (TY2G), by Chlorella vulgaris was investigated. COD removal efficiencies were determined as 69, 66 and 63% for the initial TY2G concentrations of 50, 200 and 400 mg/l, respectively, whereas acclimation of C vulgaris caused them to increase to 88, 87 and 88%, respectively. Absorbance spectral profiles obtained for unacclimated algae showed that the peak observed initially at 450 nm disappeared and the one at 220 nm decreased remarkably while there was a new peak ...
Photovoltaic performance of bifacial dye sensitized solar cell using chemically healed binary ionic liquid electrolyte solidified with SiO2 nanoparticles Cosar, Burak; Icli, Kerem Cagatay; Yavuz, Halil Ibrahim; Özenbaş, Ahmet Macit (2013-01-01) In this study, we investigated the effect of electrolyte composition, photoanode thickness, and the additions of GuSCN (guanidinium thiocyanate), NMB (N-methylbenimidazole), and SiO2 on the photovoltaic performance of DSSCs (dye sensitized solar cells). A bifacial DSSC is realized and irradiated from front and rear sides. The devices give maximum photovoltaic efficiencies for 70% PMII (1-propyl-3-methyl-imidazolium iodide)/30% (EMIB(CN)(4)) (1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium tetracyanoborate) electrolyte composi...
