The present study is aimed to access the photodegradation efficiency of methylene blue dye using CoFe2O4 and Co0.1Al0.03Fe0.17O0.4 nanoparticles. The synthesis of spinel ferrites nanoparticles was performed by a facile sol-gel method. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by FTIR, XRD, SEM, EDS, Nitrogen adsorption/desorption and UV–Visible spectroscopy. The XRD studies confirmed the spinel cubic structure of ferrite. It was also found that the crystallinity increases at an annealing temperature of 800 °C. The application of these nanoparticles for methylene blue’s photocatalytic degradation was explored and also the optimization of several parameters involving dye’s concentration, amount of catalyst and pH of the solution was done. Photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue showed that at pH 11, using 200 W visible light bulb and in 120 min; 93% methylene blue dye was degraded by using 0.1 g of Co0.1Al0.03Fe0.17O0.4.

The photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye under visible light has been investigated using chromium modified titanium dioxide supported on zeolite (Cr-TiO2/zeolite). The photocatalyst was prepared by sol-gel method and characterized by X-ray diffraction and SEM. The rate of photodegradation of dye was monitored spectrophotometrically. The effect of pH, dye concentration, amount of photocatalyst and intensity of light on the rate of photocatalytic reaction was observed. The results showed that the use of Cr-doped TiO2 increased the rate of photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue as compared to untreated TiO2. The photocatalytic mechanism of Cr-TiO2 catalyst has been tentatively discussed.   Keywords: Methylene blue, zeolite, chromium, photocatalytic degradation

The Impact

Abstract The existing work emphasizes mainly to advance the low surface features of zinc oxide (ZnO) by dispersion of Fe2O3 nanoparticles on the ZnO surface fabricated via a sol-gel route with Triton X-100 as a structure and capping agent to synthesis a novel series of Fe2O3/ZnO nanocomposites (NCs) with novel features assembling between the two nanoparticle materials. Fe2O3/ZnO is an effective semiconductor which has higher efficiency in the removal of numerous organic dyes and other pollutants. The NCs was characterized via HRTEM, XRD, FTIR, BET, RS and UV–Vis DRS. A photocatalytic performance of the fabricated Fe2O3/ZnO nanocomposites was estimated by continual degradation of the methylene blue dye (MB) as an organic pollutant in aqueous solution. The comparison between pure ZnO (NPs) and Fe2O3/ZnO (NCs) show advanced photocatalytic performance under both UV and sunlight irradiation. The impact of several parameters, for example, dopant contents, photocatalytic dosage, pH, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and point of zero charge (PZC) were evaluated and discussed. In addition, the protective species’ role was estimated via a radical scavenger route. The photo-degradation data shown that the Fe2O3/ZnO (10 wt%) semiconductor is the fit photocatalyst between the fabricated semiconductors for the methylene blue dye (MB) degradation. The intensity reduction peak of UV emission and the intensity increment of visible emission were led to the lessening in recombination between electrons and holes which are finally responsible for the maximum photocatalytic performance of Fe2O3/ZnO nanocomposites. The gained results confirmed that the dopant content is the major factor in photocatalytic degradation activity.

Adsorption Desorption

The evaluation of kinetic adsorption process of sulfonated carbon-derived from Eichhornia crassipes in the adsorption of methylene blue dye from aqueous solution has been carried out. The sulfonated carbon-derived from E. crassipes (EGS-600) was prepared by carbonation of E. crassipes powder at 600 °C for 1 h, followed by sulfonation with concentrated sulfuric acid for 3 h. The physical properties of the adsorbents were characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption studies. Adsorption study using methylene blue dye was carried out by varying the contact time and initial dye concentration for investigated kinetics adsorption models. The effect of varying temperature was used to determine the thermodynamic parameter value of ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS. The results showed that the equilibrium adsorption capacity was 98% when EGS-600 is used as an adsorbent. The methylene blue dye adsorption onto adsorbent takes place spontaneity and follows a pseudo-second-order adsorption kinetic model. Copyright © 2019 BCREC Group.

Kinetics Of

A photocatalytic reactor has been designed to study the kinetics of photocatalytic degradation of phenol and methylene blue dye present in water stream on immobilized Ti02 catalyst. The principal part of the reactor consisted of a cylindrical pyrex glass tube whose outer surface was coated with the synthetic Ti02 film catalyst prepared from sol-gel technique. An ultraviolet light lamp of 365 nm wavelength was set longitudinally in the center of the tube. The synthetic Ti02 film formulation with the molar ratio of 1 titanium isopropoxide : 8 isopropanol: 1.1 H20: 3 acetyl acetone: 0.05 acetic acid was used to develop the immobilized Ti02 film catalyst deposited over the glass support. The performance of the immobilized photocatalytic reactor was evaluated by studying the decomposition kinetics of phenol and methylene blue dye present in the aqueous stream. The kinetics of photocatalytic degradation of phenol and methylene blue obeyed first order heterogeneous equation. The kinetic parameters were evaluated from the kinetic data using the Langmuir"Hinshelwood-Hougen-Watson (LHHW) model. Keywords: Kinetics, methylene blue, phenol, photocatalytic reactor, and Ti02 film catalyst.
