Due to an increasing environmental pollution, a search for the cost
effective treatment and disposal of the dyes from the textile effluents is getting
more and more importance. Oxidation and reduction processes play important
roles in the degradation treatments of the azo dyes. The latter process is more
effective and in consequence its mechanism is also better understood. The mechanism
of the oxidation processes, the intermediates involved in these reactions and
their role in the effectiveness of the oxidative degradation of the azo dyes,
viz, phenyl azo b-naphthol (PAN), Sudan I. On exposure to sunlight at
2 1/2 hours for various samples in different concentrations of PAN mixed with
Fenton reagent, when the reactive intermediate reacted
with the colour, the pH vs. absorbance generally showed significant degradation in between pH 5 and 6. The
results were compared with the same samples on exposure to uv-light of 254 nm
and irradiated at 20 minutes. The degradation occurred in samples of relatively
high concentrations, viz, 10-3 and 5 × 10-4 mol· dm-3 at near
neutral pH 6 whereas. Low concentration samples such as 10-4 and 5 ×
10-5 mol·dm-3 showed
degradation towards more acidic range of pH 2 to 4. In advanced oxidation
process (AOP), generally reactive, strongly oxidizing ·OH radicals play a main role in
destruction of the dye molecules. The proposed mechanisms and the rate
coefficients for the reactions of ·OH intermediates with the dye molecules and with
model compounds are summarized.
