description | The main objective of this study was to investigate the photodegradation of azo dye Cibacron Brilliant Yellow 3G-P using Anatase, Degussa-P25 and ZnO. These semi-conductors were characterized using XRD, BET and TEM-EDX. The variation of the amount of semi-conductors significantly affect the rate of color removal. The decolorization rate increased as the catalyst dosage was increased. Other parameters were also studied, such as stirring speed, pH, and initial dye concentration. It was found that the rate of decolorization increases with the increase of stirring speed. Decolorization of about 30, 60 and 80% was respectively achieved in the case of Anatase, Degussa-P25 and ZnO at low stirring speed (50rpm). At pH = 3, the degradation rate was found to be higher than the alkaline pH, about 95.58 and 85.71% of color has been decolorized with Anatase and Degussa-P25 respectively. While using ZnO, the color removal reached maximum in acidic and alkaline solutions, more than 95% of dye was decolorized. The concentrations dye solutions less than 80ppm led to the removal rate of about 95% in the case of ZnO, while it was only about 8–15% in the case of TiO2 with the concentration more than 20 ppm.
