Coagulation performance of cucurbit[8]uril for the removal of azo dyes : effect of solution chemistry and coagulant dose

Dye wastewater has attracted significant attention because of its wide pH range and high content of color. In this work, the coagulation performances of cucurbit[8]uril for the removal of color from acid red 1 (AR1), orange II (OII), and Congo red (CR) dye wastewaters were investigated. Experimental...

Zusammenfassung:Dye wastewater has attracted significant attention because of its wide pH range and high content of color. In this work, the coagulation performances of cucurbit[8]uril for the removal of color from acid red 1 (AR1), orange II (OII), and Congo red (CR) dye wastewaters were investigated. Experimental results showed that color removal rates of greater than 95% for AR1, OII and CR were achieved at pH 6.0, when the dosage of cucurbit[8]uril was 1.51, 3.01 and 0.38 mmol·L-1, respectively. Under identical conditions, the color removal efficiencies of AR1 and CR were higher than OII, due to the larger molecular weights and more active hydroxyl and amino groups. Moreover, steady increases in AR1, OII and CR removal rates were recorded with increasing ionic strength. Such increases may be related to the reduction in thickness of the surface solvent membrane surrounding the dye colloids at high ionic strengths. Furthermore, Fourier transform infrared spectra demonstrated that no new bonds or functional groups were formed during coagulation, which indicates that the removal of AR1, OII and CR was primarily a physical process. The hydrogen bonds and inclusion complexes formed between cucurbit[8]uril and AR1, OII and CR contributed to the removal of color in coagulation predominantly
