Photocatalytic degradation of reactive dye solutions have been compared using two types of heterogeneous catalysts, i.e., semiconductors and iron modified clays. Decolorization and mineralization efficiencies of the catalysts were performed in a slurry batch reactor with UVA and UVC (365 and 254 nm, respectively) light sources using reactive azo dye solutions. Two natural minerals (zeolites and beidellites) modified with Fe3+, Fe2+and semiconductors (TiO2-P25 and ZnO) were used as photocatalysts. Iron modified minerals produced similar results compared to homogeneous photo-Fenton reactions under UVC radiation. Fe2+-beidellite and Fe3+-zeolite showed the best efficiency for dye removal with 98.5% at 75 min and 96.3% at 90 min, respectively, which is higher than the other iron modified minerals under UVA radiation. ZnO and TiO2 exhibited initial dye removal rates under UVA as 98.9% and 95.5% at 45 min, respectively. Mineralization efficiencies for TiO2, ZnO and Fe2+-beidellite, Fe3+ -zeolite under UVA were 86.2%, 74.5% and 76.9%, 67.8%, respectively. However mineral catalysts performed 99% dye removal rates within 15 min with respect to semiconductor catalyst values (over 97% within 45min) under UVC radiation. Mineral catalysts and TiO2 provided higher initial TOC removal rates as 92% in 60 min under UVC radiation.

The paper deals with monitoring of pollution arising due to textile based industries located along the Dombivali industrial belt of Mumbai, India. The study was carried for the period of one year from June, 2012 to May, 2013 to study the level of toxic heavy metals and the physico-chemical properties of waste water effluents discharged from the above industries. The concentration level of majority of toxic heavy metals like Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn were reported to be maximum of 45.58, 2.00, 2.06 and 9.20 ppm respectively in the month of April, while Cr and Fe concentration levels were found to be 2.50 and 55.30 ppm in the month of March. The effluent samples collected in the month of July was reported to show high BOD content of 564 ppm, while COD content was maximum of 2436 ppm in the month of October. The effluent samples collected in the month of January was having very low DO content of 3.21 ppm and high cyanide content of 0.09 ppm. The alkalinity, hardness and chloride content were maximum of 2158, 198 and 2765 ppm respectively in the effluent samples collected in the month of February. The effluents were having high total solid content of 8269 ppm during the month of April, while the salinity and phosphate contents were reported high of 5.64 and 125.70 ppm during the month of May. It was observed that the concentration level of majority of toxic heavy metals and the values of various physico-chemical parameters were above the tolerable limit set for inland surface water. The present experimental data on environmental risk assessment studies due to textile industries may be regarded as an aid towards a better understanding of the problem arising due to such industries. There is a need to convey the message that prevention of adverse health effects and promotion of health are profitable investments for employers and employees as a support to a sustainable development of economics.
