Currently, colour removal dye degradation from synthetic wastewater of RB21 dye using photocatalysis with numerous spinel catalysts created in different methods. The reactive turquoise blue (RB21) dye, which belongs to the phthalocyanine group and has a strong azo link and a Cu2+ metal complex, is a very stable molecule that is difficult to degrade. Textile, paper, and leather sectors all employ reactive dyes. Spinel ferrites are oxides with the general formula AB2O4, where A and B are rare earth, alkali metal, and transition metal cations. Researchers have used spinel catalysts in photocatalytic degradation technology to combat wastewater pollution caused by dyes. The present research is fo...
Smart ceramic coatings containing multifunctional components are now finding application in transportation and automotive industries, in electronics, and energy, sectors, in aerospace and defense, and in industrial goods and healthcare. Their wide application and stability in harsh environments are only possible due to the stability of the inorganic components that are used in ceramic coatings. Ceramic coatings are typically silicon nitride, chromia, hafnia, alumina, alumina-magnesia, silica, silicon carbide, titania, and zirconia-based compositions. The increased demand for these materials and their application in energy, transportation, and the automotive industry, are considered, to be th...
Resource Recovery in Industrial Waste Waters provides a holistic approach for discovering and harnessing valuable resources from industrial wastewaters, the cutting-edge technologies required, and a discussion on the new findings. In three volumes, the books stress the importance of contaminated waters' remediation, including surface waters, municipal or industrial wastewaters and treating these waters as a new source of nutrients, minerals and energy. It introduces polluted waters as new and sustainable sources, rather than seeing wastewaters as only a source of hazardous organic and inorganic matters. Sections discuss wastewater treatment and recovery and contribute to generate a sustainab...
