Abstract

The textile dyeing industry consumes large quantities of water and produces large volumes of wastewater from different processes in dyeing and finishing processes. The low-cost, easily available naturally prepared coagulants like Surjana seed powder (SSP), Maize seed powder (MSP) and Chitosan as an ideal alternative to recent expensive coagulant methods for Congo Red (CR) dye removal has been investigated in this study. Various process parameters like pH, coagulant dose, flocculation time and temperature and also its optimization were exploited. The maximum percentage CR removal was found to be 98.0, 94.5 and 89.4 for SSP, Chitosan and MSP, respectively, at pH 4.0, coagulant dose of 25 mg/l, flocculation time 60 min and temperature of 340 K. The Sludge Volume Index (SVI) and turbidity were calculated for these parameters including process optimization. SSP found more preferable for CR removal and Chitosan was a better coagulant, which corresponds to SVI than the other coagulants investigated.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
