Tannin-Based Coagulants in the Depuration of Textile Wastewater Effluents: Elimination of Anthraquinonic Dyes
2011
Beltrán-Heredia, Jesus | Sánchez-Martín, Jesus | Jiménez-Giles, Mercedes
Two tannin-based coagulants have been tested on anthraquinonic dye elimination from aqueous solutions. Acquapol S5T, derived from Acacia mearnsii de Wild, and Silvafloc, derived from Schinopsis balansae, were found to be excellent agents in the destabilization of Alizarin Violet 3R dye and its elimination through coagulation from textile effluents. Both coagulants showed that high affinity to the dye molecule in a wide pH range and q values reaches significant levels (up to 0.5 mg mg − 1) with reasonable low coagulant doses. Dye–coagulant system presented a consistent behavior if studied under the statistical perspective of a design of experiments, where initial dye concentration and coagulant dose were the operating variables. Finally, both coagulants seemed to follow a predictable theoretical model under the Langmuir hypothesis with an accurate adjusted r 2 coefficient above 0.9.
