Abstract
ABSTRACT This study optimises secondary textile dyeing wastewater removal using fluidised-bed Fenton (FBR-Fenton) and standard Fenton processes for chemical oxygen demand (COD) and colour removal efficiency. The Box–Behnken response surface approach optimised pH, iron ion concentration, and hydrogen peroxide concentration. At pH 3.3, [Fe2+] = 2.6 mm, [H2O2] = 6.4 mm in the fluidised bed reactor with 67 g/L quartz sand, with a 50% bed expansion after 40 min, the FBR-Fenton process removed 75.8% COD and 98.0% colour. The standard Fenton method was tuned to pH 3.2, [Fe2+] = 3.1 mm, [H2O2] = 6.6 mm, and COD and colour removal effectiveness of 69.7% and 97.5%, respectively. FBR-Fenton enhanced COD and total iron removal efficiency, reduced chemicals, and reduced sludge by 28.0% compared to conventional Fenton. This study also showed quartz sand reusability in FBR-Fenton treatment cycles. Experimental results matched response surface model predictions, proving regression equation correctness.
