Abstract :
In the present work, With the intention of removal of colour from Coomassie Brilliant Blue R (CBBR), a triphenylmethane azo dye using the synthesized Nickel Calciate nanoparticles (NiCaO2) in presence of natural sunlight. The nanoparticles were synthesized by using solution combustion method and characterisation was done by Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), Brunauer Emmett-Teller surface area determination and point zero charge determined by pH drift method. The band gap was determined by using UV-absorption spectroscopy. The rate of degradation efficiency was studied by varying different parameters such as catalyst concentration, solution pH dye concentration. The rate of degradation is highly efficient in 5Ă—10-4 mol/dm3 dye concentration with pH 6 and constant catalyst concentration 0.027g/50ml. Pseudo first-order rate constants and initial rates were determined and the photocatalytic mechanism was proposed. The result proves that NiCaO2 can be used for removal of dyes from CBBR.
