TEKSTİL ENDÜSTRİSİ ATIKSUYUNDA HETEROJEN FENTON PROSESİ İÇİN KATALİZÖR OLARAK DEMİR İÇEREN METAL OKSİT KULLANIMI

Abstract

With the increase in industrialization, the unconscious use of surface and groundwater has led to the rapid pollution of water, which is the main source of life for all living things. As a result, the need for clean water has brought the global water crisis to the agenda. The textile industry is one of the largest producers of wastewater in the world. Textile industry wastewater contains high amounts of non-biodegradable organic compounds, high concentrations of dyestuffs, salt, detergent and soap. Therefore, it is of great importance to remove organic pollutants in this wastewater. Since traditional methods are insufficient to remove organic compounds in wastewater, advanced treatment methods are required. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are one of the alternative treatment methods preferred in recent years. In this study, color removal from textile industry wastewater was researched by the heterogeneous Fenton process, which is an advanced oxidation process. The parameters such as catalyst dosage, pH, hydrogen peroxide concentration, temperature, reaction time and mixing speed that effect heterogeneous Fenton processes were investigated. Under optimum experimental conditions, the color removal efficiency was achieved as 84.4%.
