Kinetics and optimization on the discoloration of an active commercial dye,
Argazol Blue BFBR (ABB) by heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction catalyzed by
natural schorl were investigated in this study. Kinetic investigations
revealed that the first-order kinetic model was more favorable to describe
the discoloration of ABB at different reaction conditions than the
second-order and Behnajady-Modirshahla-Ghanbery models. The relationship
between the reaction rate constant k and reaction temperature T followed the
Arrhenius equation, with the apparent activation energy Ea of 51.31kJ•mol-1.
The central composite design under the response surface methodology was
employed for the experimental design and optimization of the ABB
discoloration process. The significance of a second order polynomial model
for predicting the optimal values of ABB discoloration was evaluated by the
analysis of variance and 3D response surface plots for the interactions
between two variables were constructed. Then, the optimum conditions were
determined.
