In the present work, response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to study the effects of operational parameters on the removal of two dyes (C.I. Basic Blue 3 (BB3) and C.I. Basic Yellow 2 (BY2)) using coal as low-cost and available adsorbent. Quadratic central composite design (CCD) was used...

Ultrasonic dyeing has been investigated as a means to increase the diffusion of the dye molecules into the fiber for the dyeing of various fibers. However, for scouring, bleaching, and dyeing of jute fabrics, the beneficial effect of sonication was never realized. In this work, we report the eff...

In this paper, the peroxi-coagulation process was used to assess the decoloration of C.I. Basic Yellow 2 (BY2) in aqueous solutions. Decoloration experiments were performed in the presence of sulfate electrolyte media at pH 3.0 with a gas-diffusion electrode (GDE) as cathode. Electrochemical beh...

A porous copper fiber sintered sheet (PCFSS) with high porosity and large interfacial area, loaded with Cu/Zn/Al/Zr catalyst (i.e. CuO, ZnO, Al2O3 and ZrO2), was evaluated for catalytic ozonation of Basic Yellow 87 (BY 87) in water. We investigated the influences of temperature, ozone dosage, BY...

Conductive diamond is an excellent electrode material due to its resistance to corrosion, wide potential window, and mechanical stability. Diamond doped with boron (BDD) as the anode in electrooxidation (EO) reactor to degrade trace but refractory pollutants from wastewater has received enormous...

Super activated carbon (SAC) with a high surface area and pore volume of 3095 m2/g and 2.11 cm3/g, respectively, was produced from raw petroleum coke using a chemical activation method on a pilot-scale basis and assessed as an adsorbent for the removal of metanil yellow. A detailed study, includ...

The massive Holocene landslide-damming in the Jishixia Gorges along the upper Yellow River was previously suggested to be related to China's Great Flood at 4.20–4.00 ka BP and the initiation of the first dynasty in China: the Xia Dynasty. Here, we present seven sedimentary profiles in the ...

Filamentous fungi perform tremendously in adsorption of dyes from polluted environment. In this study, Aspergillus niger LAG decolorized thiazole yellow G dye within 5 days. Scale up studies done revealed that maximum decolorization (98%) was achieved at a concentration (10 mg L−1), temperature ...

A calibrated, coupled model of the Bohai and Yellow Seas is developed to investigate sediment transport and deposition processes around a distinct clinoform east of the Shandong Peninsula. On the clinoform, deposition patterns vary seasonally with the regional hydrography and the East Asian Mons...

In the present study, a monoclonal antibody (mAb) against large yellow croaker IgM was produced by immunizing mice with purified large yellow croaker serum IgM. Western blotting showed that this mAb could specifically react with the heavy chain of large yellow croaker serum IgM. Indirect immunof...

The adsorption characteristics of basic yellow 87 from aqueous solution were investigated using two mesoporous materials: MCM41 and carbon aerogel (MCA). The adsorbents were analyzed by N2 adsorption–desorption technique and transmission electron microscopy to elucidate the effect of pore prope...

In this study, the adsorption characteristics of Basic Yellow 28 (BY 28) and Basic Red 46 (BR 46) onto boron waste (BW), a waste produced from boron processing plant were investigated. The equilibrium adsorption isotherms and kinetics were investigated. The adsorption equilibrium data were analy...

In this work, the lanthanum oxide-aluminum oxide (La2O3-Al2O3) nanocomposite is introduced as an efficient photocatalyst for the photo-degradation of the dyes basic green 1 (BG1) and basic red 46 (BR46) in their binary aqueous solution under the UV light irradiation. The properties of this catal...
