Colour substances in dyeing effluents normally cause certain difficulties in traditional biological treatment processes due to their nonbiodegradable nature. It is necessary to remove colour from dyeing effluents with the help of some physical or chemical treatment processes. This study aims to investigate the colour removal from dyeing wastewater using a TiO2-sensitized photo-oxidation process and the biodegradability of the products formed in the wastewater. Synthetic dyeing wastewater samples were exposed to near UV radiation at a wavelength of 350 nm in the presence of TiO2 and aeration. The results show that most dyes used in the experiment can be degraded by the sensitized photo-oxidation successfully. Colour removal from the wastewater was above 95% after 4-6 hours treatment. It was found that there was a relationship between the chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOC) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). While COD and TOC in the wastewater were decreased during the reaction, BOD was found to be increased, which implies that the TiO2-sensitized photo-oxidation can enhance the biodegradability of the dyeing wastewater. As a process, it might be an effective method to remove colour and to further remove COD after treating dyeing effluent by a conventional biological treatment process.

Fenton pretreatment has been used for treating dye wastewater. The effects of the dos of H2O2 and FeSO4, reaction time and pH on the removal COD were investigated. It was found that, when the reaction conditions are as follows: COD 2850 mg/L dyeing wastewater, the dosage of H2O2 is 140mmol/L, FeSO4 17.02 mmol/L, pH 7.6, and reaction time 1.0 h, the CODcr of dye wastewater removal rate of up to 70%. Fenton pretreatment process of dye wastewater has a broad prospect.

In present search, we report theoretical analysis by using DFT (TD-DFT)-B3LYP with 6-31G (d, p) level on the geometries, optoelectronic and absorption characteristics of novel a series of the donor-π-acceptor dyes. Their π-conjugated bridge is based on the thiophene, benzene, pyridine, and pyrazine, the thieno [2,3-b] indole was used as an electron donor (D) and the acid 2-cyanoacrylic was used as an electron acceptor (A) group. The theoretical information of the electronic structures such as energy levels (HOMO and LUMO) and energy gap of the molecules is based on study the dyes in organic solar cells. Consequently the energy levels, energy gap, photovoltaic properties, quantum chemical and absorption parameters of all the dyes have been computed and reported. The calculations show that the dyes under study can theoretically be good photosensitizers in DSSCs. Also, the results show that the LUMO levels of all dyes design lie over the conduction band (Ecb) of the semiconductors TiO2 (or PC70BM) likewise the HOMO levels lie under the decrease potential vitality of the (electrolytes) comparing to ability of electron transfer from the molecular dye excited state to TiO2 (or PC70BM) and chargeerenewal after photo-oxidation process, separately.

The purpose of this study is to develop the design equation of a laminar-falling-film-slurry-type (LFFS) photoreactor for the treatment of organic wastewaters (Acid Red 4) by 185 nm vacuum ultra-violet (VUV) related processes. The LFFS photoreactor is one of the most efficient reactor configurations for conducting heterogeneous photocatalytic reactions, particularly for wastewater treatment. The decomposition of Acid Red 4 dye wastewaters by VUV-based photo-oxidation process was studied under various UV light intensities, dosages of H2O2 and TiO2. By the treatment of the LFFS–VUV only process, it was found that the decomposition rates of the dye in aqueous solutions increased with the increasing of VUV light intensity, dosage of TiO2, dosage of H2O2. The apparent potential of OH. generation from the photolysis of used oxidants (i.e. OH. sources, H2O, H2O2, TiO2) to decompose the targeted dye wastewater was investigated and compared.
