α-MoO3/polyaniline composite for effective scavenging of Rhodamine B, Congo red and textile dye effluent

TL;DR: In this article, polyaniline modified MoO3 composites were synthesized via a chemical oxidative polymerization method and employed as a novel adsorbent for Rhodamine B (RhB), Congo red (CR) and textile dye effluent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multivariate optimization of the pulse electrochemical oxidation for treating recalcitrant dye wastewater

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of pulse duty cycle, current density, and flow rate of effluent on the degradation performance of a bio-refractory dye wastewaters, and the optimal solutions with the criteria of maximizing TOC degradation and minimizing energy consumption were obtained by the model fitting of BBDs.
