Abstract

Urgent calls for scientists’ contributions towards saving eco-system from toxic deterioration. Such ever increasing urgency is leading the researchers for searching for ever greening technologies such as advanced oxidation processes for aqueous effluent elimination. This current investigation is leading to investigate the metal organic frameworks, role, MIL-100(Fe) that is prepared from reacting H3BTC and ferric nitrate nona hydrate Also, Scanning electron microscopy is applied to set the surface shape of the synthesized substance. Subsequently, the prepared MIL-100(Fe) is used to oxidize Procion Blue MX-7RX in aqueous solution as a model textile wastewater effluent. The catalyst is applying in Fenton’s oxidation system and operating parameters that affecting the system is evaluated. The experimental results revealed that 40 and 800 mgL-1 for MIL-100(Fe) and hydrogen peroxide, respectively at pH 3.0 that is leading to a complete dye removal (100%). Furthermore, the dye loading affects the reaction rate since its increase reduces the removal efficacy. Finally, thermodynamic parameters and kinetics of the reaction is evaluated for the scale-up purposes for real applications.
