摘要
The release of textile effluents into the biosphere is a serious threat to the environment and promotes several health issues. Although several studies have been carried out in the remediation of textile effluents using adsorbents, the continuous mode of operation (packed bed) to treat effluent generated from the cotton-based textile industry using biosorbent is seldom reported. Here, one such investigation is made to remediate the Remazol effluent solution in batch and continuous mode of operation. A maximum decolourization efficiency of 77.5% and 49.66% was obtained for Ulva lactuca derived biochar in batch and continuous study. Column data parameters such as overall sorption time zone, breakthrough time, exhaustion time and volume of effluent treated were also calculated. Regeneration studies showed that 0.01 M sodium hydroxide can be utilized for sorption-elution up to three regeneration cycles. © 2020 Technoscience Publications. All rights reserved.
