Abstract:
Disposal of dye-containing wastewater which is mainly derived from textile industries is more disastrous and need significant attention. Therefore, environmental benign treatment process needs to be develop for elimination of such pollutants from wastewater. This work aimed to evaluate the application of the hydrophobic ionic liquid, trihexyltetradecylphosphoniumchloride ([PC6C6C6C14][Cl] used for the removal of tartrazine dye from aqueous solution. The results revealed that [PC6C6C6C14][Cl] have the potential to adsorbed tartrazine dye from aqueous solution with adsorption capacity of (150 mg/g). Furthermore, the removal efficiency of the [PC6C6C6C14][Cl] was also evaluated and it was observed that [PC6C6C6C14][Cl] have the capability to remove more than 90% tartrazine dye from aqueous solution. Overall, the result presented in this study depicted that ILs have the potential to replace the conventional toxic adsorbents used for the removal of toxic dyes.
