Abstract

The use of chromium‐containing toxic solid wastes from the leather industry for the removal of dyes from waste‐waters has been studied. A batch adsorption model has been employed and the role of various experimental parameters on the efficiency of the process evaluated. The extent of dye removal was studied by varying parameters such as pH, contact time, initial concentration of the dye and amount of adsorbent. The experimental equilibrium data for this system has been analyzed using the linearized forms of Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. The Langmuir isotherm was found to provide the best theoretical correlation of the experimental data and the adsorption was found to follow pseudo‐second‐order kinetics. The dye adsorbed solid wastes were used for the preparation of pigments. In essence, this study provides a greener solution for chromium‐containing solid wastes, dye containing waste‐waters and dye‐adsorbed chromium solid wastes.

## Abstract Copolymer hydrogels were prepared by γ‐radiation copolymerization of __N__‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone (NVP) and methylmethacrylate (MMA) or acrylonitrile (AN). The effect of NVP/MMA and NVP/AN compositions and irradiation dose on the gel fraction yield in the prepared hydrogels was determined.
