The degradation of Alizarin red dye (Anthraquinone) was investigated using a novel technique of strong ionization discharge to generate high oxidation active species from oxygen. Under the optimum conditions, AR dye was almost removed with degradation rate reaching 95%, by radicals such as •OH and O3 generated within the strong ionization discharge reactor. The intermediate products were analyzed by ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy, total organic carbon (TOC) analysis, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and ion chromatography (IC) to validate the degradation efficiency of the strong ionization discharge for AR dye and to deduce its possible decomposition pathway. Finally, It has been confirmed that the sulfur element on AR molecule results into sulfate, an environmentally friendly substance. This work shows that the strong ionization discharge can efficiently be used for the degradation of Anthraquinone dyes as well as other extensively used textile dyes.

In the present study photocatalytic degradation of hazardous water soluble alizarin red dye by using Fe-Co nanoparticles  has been investigated. Fe-Co nanoparticles was synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method and characterized by TEM, SEM, EDAX and XRD. The photocatalytic degradation have been studied with the help of variety of parameters such as catalytic dose, dye concentration, pH, contact time and most important chemical oxygen demand. It was observed that The photocatalytic degradation of alizarin red dye by using Fe-Co nanoparticles was an effective ,economic, ecofriendly and faster mode of removing dye from an aqueous solution. The optimum condition for the degradation of the dye was 50 mg/L,pH 8.0, catalyst dose 60 mg/L and contact time 60 minutes. The kinetic studies also have been studied.

Abstract Pollutants such as dyes and pharmaceuticals have become a problem in the environment, thus there is a need to find multifunctional materials that are safe and can be used for the removal of various pollutants. In this study, we report on the synthesis of Zinc sulphide (ZnS) nanostructures and their use as photocatalysts for the degradation of dyes and various antibiotics. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR) confirmed the functional groups found in plants and these were linked to the biomolecules identified through Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LCMS). Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the formation of the ZnS nanostructures. Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Brunner Emmet Teller (BET) confirmed the material was thermally stable up until 480oC and mesoporous in nature, respectively. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) showed that the material is spherical in shape and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) further corroborated their formation. From the degradation analysis, 90% of the malachite green (MG) dye could be degraded in 60 min at optimum conditions (pH 6, 25 mg and 10 mg/L) and the holes were responsible for the degradation. Lastly, when tested against antibiotics, the ZnS material managed to degrade both the sulfisoxazole (SSX) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX). These results showed that the ZnS nanoparticles could be used as a multifunctional material for the degradation of various pollutants.

Two simple, sensitive, accurate, precise and economical spectrophotometric methods have been developed and validated for the determination of rizatriptan benzoate (RZT) in pure form and pharmaceutical formulations. These methods were based on the formation of charge transfer complex between RZT as n-electron donor and alizarin red S (ARS) or quinalizarin (Quinz) as π-acceptor in methanol to form highly colored chromogens which showed an absorption maximum at 532 and 574 nm using ARS and Quinz, respectively. The optimization of the reaction conditions such as the type of solvent, reagent concentration and reaction time were investigated. Under the optimum conditions, Beer’s law is obeyed in the concentration ranges 1.0-16 and 2.0-20 g mL-1 using ARS and Quinz, respectively with good correlation coefficient (r2 ≥ 0.9996) and with a relative standard deviation (RSD% ≤ 1.16). The molar absorptivity, Sandell sensitivity, detection and quantification limits were also calculated. The methods were successfully applied to the determination of RZT in its pharmaceutical formulations and the validity assesses by applying the standard addition technique. Results obtained by the proposed methods for the pure RZT and commercial tablets agreed well with those obtained by the reported method.

AbstractThe present paper deals with surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) study of an organic dye Alizarin Red on colloidal silver nanoparticles. The colloidal solution of nanoparticles is synthesized by pulsed laser ablation of silver rod in pure deionized water using focused out put of 1064nm wavelength of Nd:YAG laser having 35mJ/ pulse energy. Sodium chloride is used as aggregating agents. It is observed that SERS enhancement factor varies strongly depending on concentration of used aggregating agent (especially on the concentration of Cl- ions). These changes in SERS efficiency of colloid are reflected through changes on the absorption spectra. The possible mechanism of SERS is also discussed.

Abstract The adsorption of alizarin red (AR) dye onto termite hill sample (THs) was investigated. Prior to the adsorption studies, the elemental, morphological, surface and structural properties of THs were examined by modern analytical methods. Instrumental analysis showed that the homogenous micro-structured THs are comprised of iron oxide, silica oxide, and alumina as major components. Experiments showed that the adsorption capacity of AR decreases with increasing pH and initial AR concentrations, and increases with increasing contact time, stirring speed and temperature. The equilibrium study obeyed the Langmuir adsorption model and the kinetics followed the pseudo-second-order model. About 95.0% AR reduction (1.425 mg/g) was achieved when 0.8 g of THs was mixed with 30 mL of 40 mg/L AR solution for 120 min at 400 rpm and a pH of 2. Thermodynamic study suggested that AR adsorption onto THs is spontaneous at higher temperatures of 323 K and above (ΔGo values are negative). However, ΔGo are positive at lower temperatures of 293–313 K, which implies that the adsorption process is not spontaneous at these temperatures. This study showed that THs could be used as alternative, low-cost, natural adsorbents for the removal of dyes from wastewater.
