Mass-producible low-cost flexible electronic fabrics for azo dye wastewater treatment by electrocoagulation

Study and Characterization of H3PO4 Activated Carbons Prepared from Jujube Stones for the Treatment of Industrial Textile Effluents

“…Several programs have been proposed in different countries to control textile effluents and constantly monitor their quality as well as to comply with regulations and standards to ensure the protection of water resources against any dangerous pollution liable to harm the ecosystem [1]. Many researchers around the world are constantly working to stop this danger that threatens our environment and health by developing a variety of methods for removing the textile dyes [12], including the following: (1) physical methods such as ion exchange [13], adsorption [14] and membrane filtration [15,16]; (2) chemical methods as coagulation-flocculation [17] and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) [18]; (3) electrochemical methods such as electro Fenton [19] and electrocoagulation [20] and (4) biological methods such as enzyme-assisted degradation [21], bacteria-assisted degradation [22] and many other methods. Among all these methods, adsorption is one of the efficient techniques widely used as a physical approach.…”
