Abstract

This study investigated the performance of different coagulants for the removal of different dye types from synthetic dye solutions. The ability to use each of the following: aluminium sulphate (Al2(SO4)3, aluminium chloride (AlCl3), and ferric chloride (FeCl3) as chemical coagulants were examined for removing reactive red 141 (RR 141) dye and disperse red 13 (DR 13) from dye solution. Coagulation studies determined the optimum pH, mixing time, coagulant dosages, and initial dye concentrations. The maximum efficiency for removing RR 141 was 65.7% by aluminium chloride at the operation condition of pH 8, mixing time 10 min, and dye concentration of 100 mg/L. In contrast, under the same conditions, ferric chloride could remove more than 98% of DR 13. Since the disperse dye type has better colour removal, the maximum volume of sludge was 0.3 kg/m3 which was produced when FeCl3 was used as a coagulant. The results demonstrated that coagulation is a promising technology for dye removal, especially for dispersed dyes as it has some characteristics such as colloidal dispersion and very low water solubility.

Farklı Koagülanlar Kullanılarak Sulu Çözeltilerden Reaktif Kırmızı 141 ve Dispers Red 13 Boyalarının Giderimi: Bir Optimizasyon ve Karşılaştırma Çalışması

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, farklı boya türlerinin sentetik boya çözeltilerinden gideriminde çeşitli koagülanların performansı araştırılmıştır. Boyarmadde olarak Reaktif kırmızı 141 (RR 141) ve dispers kırmızı 13 ( DR 13) seçilmiş, koagülan olarak da alüminyum sülfat, alüminyum klorür ve demir klorür kullanılmıştır. Boya gideriminde pH, karıştırma süresi, koagülan dozajı ve başlangıç boya konsantrasyonlarının etkisi incelenmiştir. RR141 boyasının maksimum giderim (%65.7) koşulları pH 8, 10 dakika karıştırma süresi ve 100 mg/l başlangıç boya konsantrasyonu altında alüminyum klorür ile elde edilirken, demir klorür ise aynı deney şartları altında DR 13 boyasını 98% oranında gidermiştir. Dispers boya tipinde daha iyi renk giderimi elde edildiğinden, olduğundan, demir klorür kullanıldığında açığa çıkan çamur miktarı da fazla olmuştur (~0.3 kg/m3). Elde edilen sonuçlar, koagülasyonun, kolloidal dispersiyon ve çok düşük suda çözünürlük gibi bazı özelliklere sahip olması nedeniyle, özellikle dispers boyalar için boya giderimi için umut verici bir teknoloji olduğunu göstermiştir.
