Özet |
A major water pollution problem today is related to the contamination of industrial effluentinduced textile dyes. Improper discharge of industrial wastewater can be the main source of water contamination and a potential threat to aquatic life and human health since it is highly resistant to conventional treatment methods. Photocatalysis arises as a promising alternative method to eliminate azo dyes. Rare earth metal oxides, particularly neodymium (III) oxide (Nd2O3) have emerged as catalysts in photocatalytic applications. In this study, Nd2O3 nanoparticles were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, and Raman spectroscopy. FT-IR spectroscopy revealed the characteristic bands related to the metal-oxygen groups. Reactive Red 194 (RR-194) is an azo dye containing an azo group as a chromophore, widely used in the textile industry to color cotton fabrics. The photocatalytic degradation efficiencies of RR-194 dye were compared under both UV and solar-simulated light (SI) conditions. Test conditions such as catalyst dose (0.25 g/L and 0.50 g/L) and initial RR-194 dye concentration (10 mg/L, 20 mg/L, 30 mg/L) were also investigated. Results revealed that the maximum decolorization rate of RR-194 was observed with the increased catalyst dosage and decreased initial dye concentration. |
