Abstract:The degradation of two textile dye molecules was studied using photochemical processes, both in the absence and presence of light. Various methods were employed, including photolysis/UV, combined H2O2/UV photolysis, Fe2+/UV treatment, Photo-Fenton/UV at 350 nm and Photo-Fenton with solar irradiation. The decolorization efficiency of dyes in aqueous solution was evaluated for two specific dyes: Bromothymol Blue (BTB) and Methyl Green (MG). These experiments were carried out in batch mode. The results demonstrat… Show more
