The use of synthetic chemical dyes in various industrial processes,
including paper and pulp manufacturing, plastics, dyeing of cloth,
leather treatment and printing, has increased considerably over the
last few years, resulting in the release of dye-containing industrial
effluents into the soil and aquatic ecosystems. The textile industry
generates high-polluting wastewaters and their treatment is a very
serious problem due to high total dissolved solids (TDS), presence of
toxic heavy metals, and the non-biodegradable nature of the dyestuffs
in the effluent. The chapters in this book provide an overview of the
problem and its solution from different angles. These problems and
solutions are presented in a genuinely holistic way by world-renowned
researchers. Discussed are various promising techniques to remove
dyes, including the use of nanotechnology, ultrasound, microwave,
catalysts, biosorption, enzymatic treatments, advanced oxidation
processes, etc., all of which are “green.” Green Chemistry for
Dyes Removal from Wastewater comprehensively discusses: Different
types of dyes, their working and methodologies and various physical,
chemical and biological treatment methods employed Application of
advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in dye removal whereby highly
reactive hydroxyl radicals are generated chemically, photochemically
and/or by radiolytic/ sonolytic means. The potential of ultrasound as
an AOP is discussed as well. Nanotechnology in the treatment of dye
removal types of adsorbents for removal of toxic pollutants from
aquatic systems Photocatalytic oxidation process for dye degradation
under both UV and visible light, application of solar light and solar
photoreactor in dye degradation
