Removal of a Di-Azo Dye Acid Red 73 Synthetic Wastewater by Advanced Fenton Process Based on Nanoscale Zero-Valent Iron

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, the removal of a di-azo dye, C.I. Acid Red 73 synthetic wastewater was investigated using advanced Fenton process based on nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) that was synthesized by the aqueous phase borohydride reduction method in the laboratory. NZVI has been characterized by SEM. The influences of NZVI dosage, H2O2 concentration and initial pH value in the process of dye removal by advanced Fenton process were studied in a batch setting. The color removal efficiency was found to be decreased with increase of initial pH, and increased with increase of NZVI and H2O2 concentration. By using proposed process with NZVI dose of 0.02 g/L and H2O2 concentration of 1.0 mM, at 30 min the Acid Red 73 color removal was more than 90%.
