Among industrial wastewaters, dye wastewater from textile and dyestuff industries is one of the most difficult to treat because of its synthetic origin and complex aromatic molecular structure of dyes. Biosorption using fungi is becoming a promising alternative to replace or sup…
This study traces the development of hand-dyed textiles (adire) and related social and gender issues in Southwestern Nigeria from 1841 to 1991. To do this, it examines material form and technique as well as social and cultural phenomena, linking these together and locating them …
A Saudi bentonite natural clay was investigated as an adsorbent for the Basic Blue 3 dye from wastewater. A batch adsorber was used to determine the pore diffusivity and the equilibrium isotherms, and a fixed bed adsorber was used to determine experimental breakthrough curves fo…
The water resources are polluted because of the widespread use of dyes in the industry, resulting in a major ecological threat. Among the various water treatment techniques, adsorption and photocatalytic degradation methods are the most preferred owing to their easy applicabilit…
