Retarding of preliminary chemical pollutants from dye industry effluents by metal nano particles, synthesized using flower extract of catharanthus roseus

Abstract

The present research discussed usage of 3 inorganic nano-substances in order to retard chemical pollutants from coloured effluents of dye industry and tanneries. These 3 inorganic Nano metal particles synthesized from MgSO4, CuSO4.5H2O and FeSO4.75H2O with rose petals extract Catharanthus roseus. To assess the feasibility of using these nano particles as low-cost adsorbents for suppressing preliminary chemical pollutants in coloured effluents. Also compared and investigated the ability of these 3 nano materials due to using flower extract of Catharanthus roseus petals, in order to retard preliminary chemical pollutants quantity such as pH, Alkalinity, hardness, TDS, BOD, COD, Sulphide, Sulphate, Nitrate, Ca, Mg, Phosphate, Na and K. These synthesized 3 nano materials characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopic analysis, FT-IR Spectroscopic analysis and, X-ray Diffraction (XRD) studies.
