Comparison of the removal efficiencies of Acid Blue 185 dye through adsorption, Fenton and photo-Fenton-like processes over the natural hematite, siderite and magnetite minerals containing different amounts of iron

Abstract

In this study, hematite, siderite and magnetite from natural minerals containing different amounts of iron were used. The natural mineral samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), energydispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The results of EDX indicated the presence of main elements including Fe and O in the structure of natural minerals containing different amounts of iron. The degradation efficiency of AB 185 from aqueous solution was evaluated using natural minerals containing different amounts of iron in adsorption, Fenton and photo-Fenton processes. In this study, it was observed that the degradation efficiency of AM 185 was significantly higher in photo-Fenton proses (98.84%) than other processes. In addition, in the degradation of the dye through the photo-Fenton process, natural siderite minerals were found to be more effective by 22-23 % compared to hematite and approximately 40% more effective than magnetite.

Farklı Miktarlarda Demir İçeren Doğal Hematit, Siderit ve Manyetit Minerallerini Kullanarak Adsorpsiyon, Fenton ve Foto-Fenton Benzeri Proseslerle Asit Mavisi 185 Boyar Maddesinin Giderim Etkinliğinin Karşılaştırılması

Öz

Bu çalışmada, farklı miktarlarda demir içeren doğal minerallerden hematit, siderit ve manyetit kullanıldı. Doğal minerallerin X ışını kırınımı (XRD), taramalı elektron mikroskobu (SEM), enerji ayrımlı X-ışını spektroskopisi (EDX), Fourier dönüşümü kızılötesi spektroskopisi (FT-IR) kullanılarak numunelerin karakter analizleri yapıldı. EDX'in sonuçları, farklı miktarlarda demir içeren doğal minerallerin yapısında Fe ve O içeren ana elementlerin bulunduğunu göstermiştir. Asit Mavisi 185 boyar maddesinin sulu çözeltilerde bozunma verimliliği farklı miktarlarda demir içeren doğal mineraller kullanılarak, adsorpsiyon, Fenton ve Foto-Fenton proseslerinde değerlendirildi. Yapılan çalışmada AM 185'in bozulma verimliliğinin Foto-Fenton işleminde (% 98.84) diğer işlemlere göre anlamlı derecede yüksek olduğu görüldü. Ek olarak, boyar maddenin degradasyonunda kullanılan doğal minerallerden sideritin hematite göre  % 22-23 oranında; manyetite göre ise yaklaşık % 40 oranında daha etkin olduğu bulundu.
