Abstract Various adsorbents for the removal of dyes from waste water may or may not be stable, resulting in the desorption of adsorbed dyes with slight changes in physical conditions. To avoid this problem, environmentally stable adsorbent such as activated aluminum oxide or alumina has been used for the removal of Diresul Black, which is a dye used in the textile processing industry. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy confirms the non-tetrahedral framework of alumina. The efficiency of alumina via adsorption implies that 1 g alumina having the Brunauer–Emmett–Telle surface area of 2.65 ± 0.25 m2/g is enough to achieve up to 85% removal of concentrated dye solution in just 20 minutes. Adsorption energy as well as adsorption capacity is calculated by different adsorption isotherms. The sorption energy E turns out to be 19.3 KJ/mol. The thermodynamic studies show that the value of ΔH for the adsorption process is −976.5 J/mol while that of ΔS is −4.748 J/mol/K. Desorption studies show that the dye remains in its adsorbed form over aluminum oxide up to a pH of 2. Various ions present in the matrix interfere with the adsorption process, however none can decrease the adsorption below 65%.

The objective of this theoretical paper is to explore the relationship of market orientation (MO) and organizational performance in the context of Indian textile processing industry. The study also aims to construct a conceptual model which can hypothesize the relationship between market orientation, firm performance, and entrepreneurial orientation (EO). The conceptual model is drawn with the help of extant literature review of studies conducted by various authors in the area of market orientation and entrepreneurial orientation. The study presents a model depicting the inter-relationship among MO, EO and firm performance. The proposed model also propounds that the relationship between market orientation and firm performance is mediated by entrepreneurial orientation. This work will be helpful for different stakeholders of textile processing industry to understand the importance of MO and EO and their impact on the performance of the organization. Also, the proposed conceptual model showing inter-relationship among MO, EO and firm performance is an addition to the existing pool of knowledge.

The adsorption of phenol from aqueous solution onto the hypercrosslinked polymeric adsorbent NDA-100 and its dimethylamine aminated derivatives AH-1, AH-2 and AH-3, the commercial resin Amberlite XAD-4 and the weakly basic anion-exchange resin D301 was compared. Of the tested polymers, the aminated hypercrosslinked resins had the highest adsorption capacities. The empirical Freundlich equation was successfully employed to describe the adsorption process. The specific surface area and the micropore structure of the adsorbent together with the tertiary amino group on the matrix affected the adsorption performance towards phenol. Furthermore, these factors also influenced the thermodynamic properties. Kinetic studies demonstrated that the presence of the tertiary amino group on the polymer matrix decreased the adsorption rate and increased the apparent activation energy of the adsorption process.

The corrosion inhibition characteristics of Chrysophyllum albidum cotyledon extract was studied as a green and sustainable corrosion inhibitors for pipeline steel in acidic environment attemperatures, 303,313 and 323K using gravimetric technique.The results obtained showed that the inhibition efficiency increased with increase in extract concentration but decrease with increase in temperature. The extract attained an inhibition efficiency of 94 % with 5 g/L at 303 K and 52.2 % with 1 g/L at 333K. Also increase in concentration of the extract lead to increase in activation energydepicting an exothermic process.Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) studies showed the mode of inhibition as adsorption of phytochemicals from the extract on pipeline steel surface. Langmuir adsorption isotherm best fitted into the adsorption process which is spontaneous and physical. Keywords: Chrysophyllum albidum, Pipeline steel, Inhibition, Adsorption.

In this paper, the pretreatment approaches in the textile processing industry are discussed and two case studies which have been carried out in two textile processing plants are delineated. Case studies include the phases of process and pollution profiles, treatability study, conceptual design and evaluation of one-year actual treatment plant performances. One of the treatment schemes applied was chemical coagulation while the other was activated sludge. Therefore a comparison of two main types of pretreatment has been realised. Results indicate that biological treatment is more efficient and reliable in terms of organic matter removal as compared to chemical coagulation. Comparisons of cost of initial investment, cost and ease of operation, and sludge production are also made and discussed.

A characterization of microstructure and interface was made on the composites Al-4 % Cu reinforced with 15 wt. % glass particulate. The composite was fabricated by powder metallurgy followed by solution treatment and artificial ageing. The microstructures of the composite showed that the glass particulates were in-homogenously distributed in the matrix and segregated near copper. The aluminum oxide layer was found between aluminum, copper and glass particulate. Micro cracks were observed in the aluminum oxide layer and at the interface between aluminum oxide layer and aluminum. Hardness increased as ageing time increased. Interface behavior and aging time influenced the hardness of the composite.

 The results of study of the giant magnetoresistance coefficient (GMR) in multilayer micro- and nanowires based on successively alternating ferromagnetic (Co, CoNi and NiFe) and diamagnetic (Cu) layers are presented in the paper. The samples were obtained by electrochemical deposition into the matrix pores. Aluminum oxide was used as matrices. To establish the influence of the aspect ratio, matrices of two types were used: with a pore diameter of 8 µm and 170–200 nm and a variable thickness from 10 to 60 µm. Investigations of the GMR coefficient were carried out by measuring the current-voltage characteristics in external magnetic fields up to 130 mT. When using type I matrices (pore diameter 8 μm), a positive GMR coefficient (an increase in electrical resistivity in an external magnetic field) was noted, while when using type II matrices (pore diameter 170–200 nm), a negative GMR coefficient was established (a decrease in electrical resistance in an external magnetic field). This is due to the enhancement of the interactions of spin-polarized electrons in the magnetic layers through the copper layer through the RKKY exchange with an increase in the aspect ratio. A significant effect of the composition of the ferromagnetic layer (Co, CoNi, and NiFe) on the value  of the GMR coefficient is noted. The maximum value of the negative GMR coefficient (up to –27.5 %) was established for the CoNi-based nanowire system. The use of multilayer micro- and nanowires, electrolytically deposited in a matrix of aluminum oxide with the ability to control the GMR coefficients, opens up perspective use of these objects as sensitive elements (sensors) of a constant magnetic field, as well as devices for storing magnetic information with a vertical principle.

An adsorption process using cheap adsorbents could be described as a simple, selective and low cost alternative for the treatment of colored waste water compared to conventional physical and chemical processes. In this study the use of a natural waste adsorbent - ash was investigated for the removal of a textile vat dye Ostanthren Blue GCD remaining after the dyeing of cotton textile. The ash obtained as a waste material during the burning of brown coal in the heating station of Leskovac (Serbia) was used for the treatment of waste waters from the textile industry, i.e., waste water after the dyeing process. The effect of ash quantity, initial dye concentration, pH and agitation time on adsorption was studied. The Langmuir model was used to describe the adsorption isotherm. Based on the analytical expression of the Langmuir model, the adsorption constants, such as adsorption capacity and adsorption energy, were found. Pseudo first and second order kinetic models were studied to evaluate the kinetic data.
