Abstract

Pigment / dye manufacturing industries are one of the highly polluting industries generating large volumes of high strength of waste water with disobedient properties. Different process covering anaerobic, aerobic as well as physico-chemical methods have been employed to treat this coloured effluent. The intense colour of the effluent leads to acute ecological problem when released untreated in to environment. Thedecolourisationor deterioration of effluent is known to be very challenging task. In this paper degradation of industrial dyein terms of colour, was studied by usingCr doped TiO2 photo catalyst. The Cr doped TiO2 nanoparticles were prepared by a using Chromium and titanium peroxide gel method with Titanium Isopropoxide as a precursor. The physico-chemical characteristics of the Chromium–titania catalysts of concentration range 0.5 to 5% (w/v) were determined using the methods of Brunauer-Emmett-Teller adsorption, X-ray diffraction, FE-SEM, FT-IR,and UV visible spectroscopy (DRS).The Cr-TiO2 catalystshowed a photo-degradation of dye for all concentration i.e. 0.5 to 5% (wt %).The maximum photocatalytic degradation (90%) ofwas observed for Jakofix red dye (HE 7B)at 0.5% Cr-TiO2sol gel catalyst, as compared to pure TiO2.
