STUDI PENURUNAN ZAT WARNA ACID ORANGE 7 DENGAN PROSES OKSIDASI MENGGUNAKAN FERRAT (FeO4)2-

ABSTRACT: Colour removal from textile wastewater has been a matter of considerable interest during the last two decades, not only because of the potential toxicity of certain dyes but often due to their visibility in receiving waters and to their low biodegradability. Due to the limited success of some physical and chemical techniques for the treatment of dye effluents it is necessary to develop destructive systems leading to complete mineralization or, at least, to less harmful or easy-to-treat compounds. Oxidation processes using ferrate (FeO4)2- have been found to be very effective in the degradation of dye pollutants and for the treatment of waste waters from the textile industry.

Acid Orange 7 (AO7) commonly used as a textile dye and could be degraded by ferrate oxidation processes. In the oxidation degradation of dye by ferrate process, effect of some parameters such as time, pH, and molar ratio of dye was examined at experimental condition. AO7 removal by this process was calculated to be equal to 12 minute at experimental condition. Ferrate can oxidize acid orange 7 effectively at optimum pH of 9.8, with the molar ratio of ferrate : acid orange 7 at 4:1. The percentages of acid orange 7 degradation reached to 98.9%.
