Abstract
Textile wastewater containing dyes poses significant risks to the environment. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) effectively eliminate dyes by converting them into harmless substances. However, AOPs have drawbacks such as sludge formation, metal toxicity, and high cost. As an alternative to AOPs, calcium peroxide (CaO2) offers an eco-friendly and potent oxidant for dye removal. Unlike certain AOPs that generate sludge, CaO2 can be directly employed without resulting in sludge formation. This study examines the use of CaO2 for oxidizing Reactive Black 5 (RB5) in textile wastewater without any activator. Various independent factors-pH, CaO2 dosage, temperature, and certain anions-were investigated for their influence on the oxidation process. The effects of these factors on dye oxidation were analyzed using the Multiple Linear Regression Method (MLR). CaO2 dosage was determined to be the most influential parameter for RB5 oxidation, while the optimal pH for oxidation with CaO2 was found to be 10. The study determined that 0.5 g of CaO2 achieved approximately 99% efficiency in oxidizing 100 mg/L of RB5. Additionally, the study revealed that the oxidation process is endothermic, with an activation energy (Ea) and standard enthalpy (ΔH°) for RB5 oxidation by CaO2 determined as 31.135 kJ mol-1 and 110.4 kJ mol-1, respectively. The presence of anions decreased RB5 oxidation, with decreasing effectiveness observed in the order of PO43-, SO42-, HCO3-, Cl-, CO32-, and NO3-. Overall, this research highlights CaO2 as an effective, easy-to-use, eco-friendly, and cost-efficient method for removing RB5 from textile wastewater.

Abstract
This study is aimed to model and optimize the decolorization of reactive black 5 (RB5) dye using Bacillus albus DD1. The response surface methodology (RSM) along with rotatable central composite design (rCCD) is used to optimize the response, % decolorization with four input variables: (i) pH (5-9), initial dye concentration (50-500 ppm), the composition of yeast extract as nitrogen source (0.2-1%) and amount of bacterial inoculum (5-25% v/v). The % decolorization is predicted to be ≈ 98% at the optimized condition (pH = 7.6, dye concentration = 200 ppm, bacterial inoculum = 20 v/v% and yeast extract = 0.4%). Furthermore, the kinetics and thermodynamics of RB5 degradation are also determined. The kinetic order of biodegradation of RB5 is found to follow first-order kinetics with a kinetic rate constant = 0.0384. The activation energy, Ea and frequency factor, A values are calculated as 34.46 kJ/mol and 24,343 (1/Day). A thermodynamic study is also carried out at different temperatures (298 K, 308 K, 310 K, 313 K, and 318 K) using optimized conditions. The values of the ΔH and ΔS are found to be +30.79 kJ/mol, and -0.1 kJ/mol/K, respectively using the Eyring-Polanyi equation. The values of ΔG are also calculated at all temperatures.

Abstract
The direct discharge of azo dyes and/or their metabolites into the environment may exert toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic effects on exposed fauna and flora. In this study, we analyzed the metabolites produced during the degradation of an azo dye namely Reactive Black 5 (RB5) in the bacterial-augmented floating treatment wetlands (FTWs), followed by the investigation of their underlying toxicity. To this end, a FTWs system was developed by using a common wetland plant Phragmites australis in the presence of three dye-degrading bacteria (Acinetobacter junii strain NT-15, Pseudomonas indoloxydans strain NT-38, and Rhodococcus sp. strain NT-39). We found that the FTW system effectively degraded RB5 into at least 20 different metabolites with the successful removal of color (95.5%) from the water. The fish toxicity assay revealed the nontoxic characteristics of the metabolites produced after dye degradation. Our study suggests that bacterially aided FTWs could be a suitable option for the successful degradation of azo dyes, and the results presented in this study may help improve the overall textile effluent cleanup processes.

Abstract
Abstract
In the present study, calcium peroxide (CaO2) was used separately for potential application as an environmentally friendly and low-cost oxidant for the removal of a textile dye ‘Reactive Black 5’ (RB5) from simulated textile wastewater containing auxiliary chemicals of textile production. The specific morphology, elemental analysis, particle size distribution, specific surface area, identification of crystalline phases and surface functional groups of the synthesized CaO2 were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX), laser diffraction (LD), Brunaure–Emmett–Teller method (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transmission infrared (FTIR), respectively. X-ray Diffraction analysis confirmed the synthesized oxidant as CaO2 with the tetragonal crystalline structure. The signal corresponded to a bending vibration of O–Ca–O was detected in the fingerprint region of the FTIR spectroscopy. The effects of various independent parameters such as contact time, pH, initial RB5 concentration and CaO2 dosage on decolorization were investigated. The results of the study showed that pH, initial dye concentration and the CaO2 amounts have significant effects on removal of the RB5. The optimum pH was determined 7 for the removal of RB5 by CaO2. 2.0 g CaO2 was found to be sufficient for the removal of 300 mg/L RB5 with 96.93% removal efficiency. Also 82.8% chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency from simulated textile wastewater (STW) was obtained by 2.0 g CaO2. The results of the present study showed that the CaO2 can be used as an environmentally friendly and low-cost oxidant for effective removal of reactive textile dyes.

Design of Polymer-Embedded Heterogeneous Fenton Catalysts for the Conversion of Organic Trace Compounds. Processes (Basel) 2021.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation processes are the main way to remove persistent organic trace compounds from water. For these processes, heterogeneous Fenton catalysts with low iron leaching and high catalytic activity are required. Here, the preparation of such catalysts consisting of silica-supported iron oxide (Fe2O3/SiOx) embedded in thermoplastic polymers is presented. The iron oxide catalysts are prepared by a facile sol–gel procedure followed by thermal annealing (calcination). These materials are mixed in a melt compounding process with modified polypropylenes to stabilize the Fe2O3 catalytic centers and to further reduce the iron leaching. The catalytic activity of the composites is analyzed by means of the Reactive Black 5 (RB5) assay, as well as by the conversion of phenol which is used as an example of an organic trace compound. It is demonstrated that embedding of silica-supported iron oxide in modified polypropylene turns the reaction order from pseudo-first order (found for Fe2O3/SiOx catalysts), which represents a mainly homogeneous Fenton reaction, to pseudo-zeroth order in the polymer composites, indicating a mainly heterogeneous, surface-diffusion-controlled process.

Abstract
Pulp and paper mill wastewater (PPMWW) contains high concentrations of recalcitrant compounds that cause toxicity to organisms. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have the ability to degrade these compounds and reduce overall toxicity. Physicochemical characterization and Lactuca sativa toxicity test were conducted to compare the effectiveness of two post-treatments: UV/H2O2 and photo-Fenton. A comparison of four phytotoxicity indexes was carried out. PPMWW from a Brazilian treatment plant was characterized by high values of phenols, color, integrated spectral area (ISA), and chemical oxygen demand (COD), and caused significant inhibition to seedling development. The use of both post-treatments allowed the removal of over 75% of phenols, color, ISA, and COD. Although UV/H2O2 was more effective in removing phenols and ISA, photo-Fenton better reduced phytotoxicity. The most sensitive phytotoxicity indexes were RGIC0.8 and GIC80%, whereas SGC0, REC-0.25 and REC-0.50 better showed the effectiveness of the post-treatments. We suggest the combined use of two phytotoxicity indexes: one that evaluates the effects on seed germination and, another, on root elongation, e.g., SGC0 and RGIC0.8. Additionally, we recommend the use of ISA for monitoring programs of wastewater treatments because it is a cost-effective approach that allows narrowing down the search and identification of compounds present in complex mixtures.

Abstract
Alternative routes to degrade dyes are of crucial importance for the environment. Hence, we report the electrochemical removal of indanthrene blue by using a boron-doped diamond anode, focusing on the toxicity of the treated solutions. Different operational conditions were studied, such as current density (5, 10, and 20 mA cm-2) and electrolyte composition (Na2SO4, Na2CO3, and NaNO3). Besides, the pH was monitored throughout the experiment to consider its direct influence on the ecotoxicity effects. The highest electrochemical oxidation efficiency, measured as color removal, was seen in the 180 min condition of electrolysis in 0.033 M Na2SO4, applying 20 mA cm-2, resulting in a color removal of nearly 91% and 40.51 kWh m-3 of energy consumption. The toxicity towards Lactuca sativa depends solely on pH variations being indifferent to color removal. While the inhibition concentration (IC50) for Raphidocelis subcapitata increases 20% after treatment (in optimized conditions), suggesting that the byproducts are more toxic for this specific organism. Our data highlight the importance of analyzing the toxicity towards various organisms to understand the toxic effect of the treatment applied.

Abstract
The main purpose of this work was to evaluate the performance of a commercial reverse osmosis (RO) membrane regarding selectivity (rejection) and productivity (permeate flux) of the treatment of quaternary ammonium compounds (QAC) after electro-Fenton (EF) treatment. Pollutants treated after the EF process should be investigated for ecotoxicity, since excess ions and high conductivity are harmful to aquatic and terrestrial biota. The use of the membrane system after EF treatment acts as final polishing since some electro-oxidative treatments leave the sample with high conductivity. In this study, RO was operated with a constant flow of 1 L min-1 and feed pressures of 1 MPa, 2 MPa and 3 MPa to reject ions (sodium and iron) and to decrease the level of toxicity using representative species from different taxonomic groups: freshwater algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata), microcrustaceans (Daphnia similis) and lettuce seeds (Lactuca sativa). Experiments carried out at different pressures showed that increased pressure caused a rise in rejection and permeate flux. At the applied pressure of 3 MPa, after 180 min, conductivity removal efficiency of 83% was obtained, 85% for sodium and 99% for iron at a flow of 13.87 L/h m2. In all bioassays, the use of the membrane was efficient to decrease the toxicity by rejecting the ions. The microcrustacean tested was the most sensitive organism, while alga was the most tolerant organism. The germination of lettuce seeds and the relative growth rate of the radicle after the combined EF+RO process was satisfactory.

Abstract
The removal of textile azo dye, Reactive Black from the aqueous solutions by catalytic wet air oxidation in the presence of LaNiO3 perovskite catalyst has been investigated. The most suitable reaction conditions were determined by testing various the catalyst loadings, reaction temperature and pressure values, and the initial pH of the Reactive Black 5 solutions. The most suitable reaction conditions with 0.61 L/min of air flow rate were found to be 1 g/L of LaNiO3 loading, 50 °C of reaction temperature, 1 atm of reaction pressure, and, pH = 3 for the oxidation of 100 mg/L Reactive Black solutions. Under these conditions the degradation and the decolorization efficiencies were evaluated as 65.4% and 89.6%, respectively. The phytotoxicity analyzes were carried out by using Lepidium sativum. According to the toxicity tests a remarkable decrease in the growth inhibition was achieved by the catalytic wet air oxidation in the presence of LaNiO3 catalyst. The growth inhibition in the untreated and treated dye solutions were calculated as 49.3% and 23.7%, respectively.
