Russian and Spanish Scientists Develop Effective Methods for Water Treatment of Crystalline Violet Dye
Researchers from Tomsk State University, the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and the University of Murcia tested new water treatment methods for crystalline violet dye. Ultraviolet irradiation (222 nm) and electron treatment effectively destroyed the dye in 30-32 minutes, making the treated water non-toxic to plants. Supported by the Russian Science Foundation, the study highlights advancements in wastewater treatment systems.

Scientists from Tomsk State University, the Institute of Electrophysics of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and the University of Murcia tested two new methods for treating wastewater contaminated with crystalline violet dye. Both ultraviolet irradiation at 222 nanometers and electron treatment achieved complete degradation of the dye within 30-32 minutes.
The treated water was assessed for safety on watercress seeds, showing no adverse effects on germination or growth. The research, funded by the Russian Science Foundation, aims to enhance wastewater treatment systems against industrial pollutants.
