The experimental data of investigating the efficiency of zinc oxide nanoparticles technology under ultraviolet radiation (UV/ZnO) to remove Acid - 32 - Cyanine 5R from aqueous solutions.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this data was to evaluate the efficiency of zinc oxide nanoparticles plus ultraviolet radiation (UV/ZnO) technology to remove Acid - 32 - Cyanine 5R. The effect of optimal parameters including initial pH (5,10), contact time (2-20 min), initial dye concentration (0.5-2 mg/L), and zinc oxide dosage (0.1 and 0.2 g/L) was investigated. The data showed that under alkaline conditions (pH = 10) and 0.2 g/L of ZnO nanoparticles, the maximum dye removal efficiency was observed under UV/ZnO process conditions. Furthermore, with the increase in Acid - 32 - Cyanine 5R dye concentration, the removal efficiency of the dye diminished, while with prolongation of the radiation time, the removal efficiency increased. In the presence of ultraviolet radiation, there is a need to longer time and hi
