This study evaluates the advanced oxidation process for decolorization of real textile dyeing wastewater containing azo and disperse dye by TiO2 and UV radiation. Among effective parameters on the photocatalytic process, effects of three operational parameters (TiO2 concentration, initial pH and aeration flow rate) were examined with response surface methodology. The F-value (136.75) and p-value <0.0001 imply that the model is significant. The ‘Pred R-Squared’ of 0.95 is in reasonable agreement with the ‘Adj R-Squared’ of 0.98, which confirms the adaptability of this model. From the quadratic models developed for degradation and subsequent analysis of variance (ANOVA) test using Design Expert software, the concentration of catalyst was found to be the most influential factor, while all the other factors were also significant. To achieve maximum dye removal, optimum conditions were found at TiO2 concentration of 3 g L−1, initial pH of 7 and aeration flow rate of 1.50 L min−1. Under the conditions stated, the percentages of dye and chemical oxygen demand removal were 98.50% and 91.50%, respectively. Furthermore, the mineralization test showed that total organic compounds removal was 91.50% during optimum conditions.

Abstract In this study, electrochemical oxidation of combed fabric dyeing wastewater was investigated using graphite electrodes. The response surface methodology (RSM) was used to design the experiments via the central composite design (CCD). The planned experiments were done to track color changes and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal. The experimental results were used to develop optimization models using RSM and the artificial neural network (ANN) and they were compared. The developed models by the two methods were in good agreement with the experimental results. The optimum conditions were found at 150 A/m2, pH 5, and 120 min. The removal efficiencies for color and COD reached 96.6% and 77.69%, respectively. The operating cost at the optimum conditions was also estimated. The energy and the cost of 1 m3 of wastewater required 34.9 kWh and 2.58 US$, respectively. The graphite electrodes can be successfully utilized for treatment of combed fabric dyeing wastewater with reasonable cost.
