Abstract Due to the complex quality and the large discharge of printing and dyeing wastewater, it will pollute the environment and affect human health. Therefore, how to use efficient and inexpensive treatment methods to treat printing and dyeing wastewater has become an urgent problem to be solved. At present, most printing and dyeing wastewater contains methylene blue pollutants. Based on the previous research in this article, the process conditions for the enhanced degradation of methylene blue by trough ultrasound are optimized. Orthogonal test results show that the optimal process parameter for the degradation of methylene blue by trough ultrasonic is pH 12.70, and the initial With a concentration of 10.00mg/L and an ultrasonic power of 200W, under the above optimal process conditions, the degradation rate of methylene blue is 77.95%; Ultrasound improves the rapid degradation of methylene blue through mechanisms such as cavitation, thermal and mechanical effects. This process can be used for the industrial degradation of methylene blue. The application provides a research basis.

The fungus Irpex Lacteus is effective in decolourising methylene blue, a common dye in printing and dyeing wastewater, and it is of clear significance to investigate its optimal decolourisation process through liquid fermentation. The medium mixed with methylene blue dye was incubated with Irpex Lacteus in a constant temperature shaking flask liquid fermentation equipment, and single factors such as incubation time, temperature, shaking bed speed, dye concentration, pH, carbon and nitrogen sources were screened, and key factors were targeted orthogonal tests were carried out to optimise the best decolourisation process for Irpex Lacteus against methylene blue. The single-factor test revealed that carbon, nitrogen, pH and inoculum were the main factors influencing the decolourisation of methylene blue by Irpex Lacteus. The results of the orthogonal test showed that the decolourisation effect was best when the carbon source was sucrose, the nitrogen source was peptone, pH=3.5, the inoculum level was 7% and the incubation time was 10 days. Irpex Lacteus showed good decolourisation effect on methylene blue and the optimised process conditions provided a new direction for the treatment of printing and dyeing wastewater.

Owing to its widespread and persistent usage, methylene blue (MB) is an environmental substance, mostly found in the printing and dyeing industry that raises concerns in the environment recently by posing significant threat to human life and the ecosystem as a whole. Thus, there is the need to effectively manage and treat the wastewater from these industries before reaching to the available water sources. Ozonation treatment is very efficient in treating printing and dyeing wastewater (MB) and can be greatly improved by using micro-bubble technology. Microbubble dissolution is an effective way to improve the rate of ozone mass transfer. To discover these properties, a method was used to improve the mass transfer of ozone microbubbles, which was used to effectively treat simulated printing and dyeing wastewater. We investigated the effects of pH, water temperature, ozone flow, and other conditions on the dissolution and attenuation properties of ozone in methylene blue microbubble solutions. Treatment of simulated printing and dyeing wastewater (methylene blue) was investigated under various initial pH and ozone flow rates. A catalytic exhibition was performed towards the decolorization of methylene blue (MB) concentrations and the corresponding COD removal efficiency. Ozone depletion and pH levels played key roles in MB degradation. Under high pH level of 11.01, the rate of removal of COD was 93.5%. Ozone dosage also has direct effect on COD removal efficiency and decolorization. Higher ozone flow rates, 0.4 L/min and 0.5 L/min recorded more than 94% degradation of COD thus very effective and efficient. Also, ozone flow rates 0.3 L/min, 0.4 L/min and 0.5 L/min with initial pH, 7.03, 6.63 and 6.36 decreased to 3.43, 3.49 and 3.44 after reaction processes which clearly shows that with high ozone dosage, pH reduces considerably.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to purify the wastewater in the garment industry. Design/methodology/approach The preparation of the calcium alginate (CA)/activated carbon (AC) composite membrane was achieved by vacuum freeze-drying and the cross-linking reaction between sodium alginate and CaCl2. Effective parameters in the methylene blue (MB) adsorption such as temperature, dose, contact time and pH were discussed. The adsorption properties of the composite membrane were investigated by isotherm, kinetics and thermodynamic analysis. The adsorption equilibrium data were described by the adsorption isotherm Langmuir model and the Freundlich model. The pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order and intra-particle diffusion equations were selected to evaluate the kinetics. The thermodynamic study described that the adsorption reaction was spontaneous and exothermic. Findings The AC/CA membrane is an efficient and powerful adsorbent to remove MB in printing and dyeing wastewater, and provides a new idea for the selection of adsorption materials for industrial printing and dyeing wastewater. Practical implications The composite membrane research on CA and AC can provide new ideas for the research of these kinds of materials. Social implications The paper contributes to its wider and convenientapplication in wastewater treatment. Originality/value Studies on the combination of CA and AC into adsorption membranes and for the removal of dyes from printing and dyeing wastewater have not been reported. A novel composite material is provided for treatment dyeing wastewater in garment production. The composite membrane research on CA and AC can provide new ideas for the research of these kinds of materials and contribute to its wider and convenient application in wastewater treatment.

Abstract With the rapid development of industry, the discharge of textile printing and dyeing wastewater will cause serious pollution to other pure water bodies. It is imperative to deal with textile printing and dyeing wastewater. In this paper, with titanium tetrachloride as a precursor, attapulgite (ATP) / TiO2 nanocomposites were prepared by a neutralizing hydrolysis method and their catalytic activities were investigated by the oxidative degradation of methylene blue dye using ozone as oxidant. The test results showed that there were significant interactions between TiO2 and ATP support. The effects were also studied of ozone concentration, catalyst amount, reaction temperature, and initial concentration of methylene blue on the degradation rate of methylene blue catalyzed by the prepared attapulgite / TiO2 nanocomposites, and under the optimal conditions, the methylene blue could be degraded more than 90% in 30 minutes. Compared with that of pure ATP, the catalytic activities of ATP / TiO2 nanocomposites were enhenced remarkably. The degradation mechanism of methylene blue was also discussed.

A more detailed occurrence features of organic matters in the printing and dyeing wastewater, based on its particle size distribution (PSD) and along with a wastewater treatment process, was conducted to provide a support for advanced treatment. Results suggested that, (1) In the dyeing wastewater, the occurrence characteristic of COD was: soluble>supra colloidal>colloidal>settleable; However, for protein, the supra colloidal was dominant, followed by the soluble. The feature of the polysaccharide was consistent with COD’s. In the wastewater, 29.66% of COD could be attributed to proteins and 3.45% of the COD could be attributed to polysaccharides. (2) The relationship among the forms of COD in the primary sedimentation tank, aerobic tank, secondary sedimentation tank, and reverse osmosis-treated concentrated effluent was consistent, that was: soluble>colloidal>supra colloidal>settleable. (3) In the primary sedimentation tank, the settleable COD was almost completely removed; In the aerobic tank, the residual super colloidal COD was not much; After MBR-RO treatment, the COD in the reverse osmosis concentrated water was almost dissolved and only a little presented in other forms.
