AZO DYES TREATMENT WITH PHOTOCATALYTIC PROCESS
Main Article Content
Abstract
By using advanced oxidation processes assisted by solar radiation in CPC (Compound Parabolic Concentrator) reactors it was possible the decolourisation (98%) of the azo dyes acid red 151 (AR151), acid orange 7 (AO7) and acid blue 113 (AB113). The dose of Fenton reagent was determined through a central composite design and by using response surface methodologies. The experimental strategy allowed the reduction of the reagent dose up to 40%, providing even the same decolourisation percentages as well as the generation of potentially biodegradable effluent.
Key words: Azo, optimization, photo-Fenton, response surface, solar collector
