The major concern of the present research is degradation of
hazardous and stable Indigo dye used in industrial denim dying process. For
this purpose, a heterogeneous photocatalysis process was carried out to treat
aqueous solution of Indigo dye using pure titanium dioxide (TiO₂) in
a batch reactor system under ultraviolet A (UVA) light for 210 min. In the
study, individual and synergistic effects of factors such as TiO₂
dosage, pH, and initial dye concentration were scrutinized. Moreover, Taguchi
statistical method was performed to optimize influential parameters. The
results obtained from the study that TiO₂ concentration had the most
effective factor on the Indigo dye degradation. The optimal conditions for dye
removal were A (pH) at level 2 (4), B (initial dye concentration) at level 1
(10 mg/L) and C (TiO₂ concentration) at level 4 (1.5 g/L). The
results presented that the theoretically predicted value for degradation
efficiency (100%) was confirmed by the experimental value (100%).
