Abstract Rhodamine B (RhB), widely used as an industrial dye, is a toxic organic that is hazardous to human health and can cause water pollution. In this study, the removal rate of RhB was investigated by the following methods: hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) operated individually, and HC combined with oxidants H2O2 or ClO2. The effect of different operating parameters including pressure (2–6 bar) and initial pH (2–8) on the extent of degradation was investigated using an orifice plate as the cavitation device to achieve maximum removal of RhB. Under the parameters of HC, the effect of different loadings was investigated: H2O2 (n(RhB):n(H2O2) was varied from 1:17.60 to 1:211.28) and ClO2 (n(RhB):n(ClO2) was varied from 1:8.87 to 1:177.53). A combination of cavitation and H2O2 or ClO2 resulted in degradations of 80.6% and 95.3%. The results indicated that the combination of HC and oxidants was better than the individual HC process for the degradation of RhB. When combining HC with H2O2 or ClO2, the synergistic coefficients of 62.54 and 74.79 were obtained. The combination of HC and ClO2 was proven to be more effective for the removal of RhB compared to HC alone and the hybrid process of HC and H2O2.

The degradation of Rhodamine B, a common pollutant existing in industrial wastewater, has been explored using a hydrodynamic cavitation reactor combined with CCl4treatment. The effects of CCl4concentration, operating pH values, inlet pressure, initial temperatures and initial RhB concentration were investigated. The result shows that the removal of RhB increases from 70.78% to 80.38% with increasing CCl4concentrations during hydrodynamic cavitation. Degradation of RhB with CCl4treatment increased as the operating pH value and its initial concentration decreased, a 7-fold increase (from 0.22×102min1to 1.68×102min1) in the kinetic rate constants were found at pH values ranging from 4.0 to 2.0. In addition, RhB degradation with CCl4treatment increased as the inlet pressure and temperature increased. From the present work, we conclude that the RhB degradation reaction follows a pseudo-first-order kinetics, and the mechanisms of CCl4enhancement are subsequently discussed.

Economical recovery of copper metal from leach liquors has been carried out by the simple process of cementing copper onto a suitable substrate metal, such as scrap-iron, since the 16th century. The process has, however, a major drawback of consuming more iron than stoichiometrically needed by the reaction.Therefore, many research groups started looking into the process more closely. Though it is accepted that the structural characteristics of the resultant copper deposit cause changes in reaction rates for various experimental conditions, not many systems have been systematically investigated. This paper examines the deposit structures and the kinetic data, and explains the correlations between them.A simple cementation cell along with rotating discs of pure iron (99.9%) were employed in this study to obtain the kinetic results The resultant copper deposits were studied in a Hitachi Perkin-Elmer HHS-2R scanning electron microscope operated at 25kV in the secondary electron emission mode.
