Abstract

Our strategy aims to reduce pollution rates by treating the water generated from the dyeing operations using reactive dyes, by removing the color from yellow effluent 145 using two different types of geopolymer based on metakaolin. Factors affecting decolorization are optimized according to many criteria including adsorbent dose, curing time, different pH, and dose of dye used
