Article Synopsis
- Water pollution from dyes, particularly azo dyes like Direct Red 83:1, is a significant environmental issue, necessitating effective and cost-efficient decolorization methods suitable for industrial application.
- The study successfully synthesized and tested a magnetic β-cyclodextrin polymer for dye removal, finding optimal conditions (0.5 g at pH 5.0) and achieving equilibrium in 30 minutes with a maximum adsorption capacity of 32.0 mg/g.
- The polymer demonstrated good reusability over six cycles, with a minimal reduction in adsorption capacity, and residual dye was effectively degraded through an advanced oxidation process using pulsed light and hydrogen peroxide, achieving over 90% degradation.
