Abstract

This study was performed
to investigate the degradation of Maxilon Blue GRL which is widely used as textile
dye and whom existence in
textile wastewaters cause
major trouble to human and other livings health. Using reliable methods such as
subcritical water oxidation (SWO) and ultrasonic
assisted oxidation (UAO) methods for cleaning the textile wastewater is of great importance. In this context,
Subcritical water oxidation and ultrasonic assisted oxidation methods were applied using homemade
stainless steel reactor system and Ultrasound system for degradation of MBG in
aqueous solution. TOC
removal was measured to determine the efficiency of the process. Experimental
variables were evaluated by Response Surface Method (RSM) and optimum
parameters and theoretical equations were proposed. ANOVA results of SWO experiments show that utilized
design was expressed by quadratic model. The properties of this model presented
by ANOVA terms. Maximum TOC removal rates obtained by using SWO and UAO were 89.44
% and 24.85 %, respectively.  Obtained findings indicated the applicability of the performed methods in
the degradation of wastewaters containing MBG.
