The presence of malachite green dye in wastewater has a great negative impact on the environment. At present, industrial wastewater is treated using adsorption, electrolysis and membrane separation, among which the adsorption method is the most widely used wastewater treatment. In this study mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were prepared using the sol-gel method and modified with the natural polymer urushiol (U) to obtain MSN@Us, which have a core-shell structure. This is the first use of urushiol in dye adsorption. The structures and chemical properties of the MSNs and MSN@Us were characterized. The adsorption of malachite green by the MSNs and MSN@Us showed that the adsorption rate of MSN@Us was higher than that of MSNs, with an adsorption rate greater than 90%. This study provides a new research direction for the use of urushiol in the treatment of contaminated wastewater.

This work developed a novel oxidized hierarchical porous carbon (OHPC) with vesicule-like ultrathin graphitic walls via a method of air oxidation and used as an efficient adsorbent for Congo red (CR) and Malachite green (MG) removal. Results show that the OHPC2 oxidized at 400 °C possesses three-dimensional hierarchical pores with vesicule-like ultrathin graphitic walls. The prepared OHPC2 not only has a large specific surface area of 1020 m g with a high pore volume, but also has abundant oxygen-containing functional groups.

The release of toxic chemical dyes from the industrial effluent poses huge challenges for the environmental engineers to treat it. Azo dyes encompass the huge part of textile discharges which are difficult to degrade due to their complex chemical aromatic structures and due to the presence of strong bonds (-N=N-). Thus, the removal of a carcinogenic azo dye (i.

Azo food dyes are prohibited in most countries, but their injudicious use is still reported particularly in the developing Nations. Continuous use of contaminated food raises health concerns and given this the present study designed to investigate the effects of 3 non-permitted azo dyes (metanil yellow - MY, malachite green - MG, and sudan III - SIII) on neurobehavioral, neurochemicals, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and histopathological changes in the corpus striatum of rats. Rats were grouped and treated with MY (430 mg/kg), MG (13.

Malachite green is a hazardous chemical that poses serious threats to aquatic ecosystems due to its toxicity and persistence in the environment. Additionally, it is harmful to human health, recognized as a carcinogenic and mutagenic agent that can cause long-term adverse effects. Hence, in this study, malachite green dye was efficiently removed from aqueous media using CoO/MgO/MgBO novel nanocomposites, known as CBM600 and CBM800.
