Accepted: 4 September 2020

Dye treatments in industrial wastewaters causes numerous obstacles while stains exist normally constant to radiance as well as corrosion and thus, aerobic digestion. The removal of Congo red dye in low concentration from acidic aqueous solution is the main objective of present work. Synthesis of Acrylamide (AM), Diallyl Dimethyl Ammonium Chloride Propylene (DADMAC) and Acryloyloxyethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride (DAC) (PADD) were carried by UV-initiated polymerization, and polyacrylamide (PAM) as contrast sample. Several analytical techniques existed employed to characterization and demonstrate the productive synthesize of PADD, characteristics and composition of the flocculants was studied through FTIR, 1HNMR while thermal stability of PADD in addition PAM was studied by TGA. In addition, the strong structure of surface morphology was confirmed by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). Established effective process was used to evaluate the flocculation behaviour with special characteristics. Measuring the parameters, dosage of flocculants, flocculation time, temperature, flocculants initial concentration of Congo red dye, stirring speed and zeta potential in removal of Congo red efficiently in acid aqueous environment. These factors presented that in the condition of strong acidity, low concentration and charge neutralization, the adsorption and bridging effect of PADD on Congo red dye was dominant. Under the idyllic conditions concentration of dye 3.0 mg L-1 and pH 6.0, the maximum removal rates of Congo red dye have been 96.45% and 81.10%, PADD and PAM, respectively. PADD provides a scientific basis platform for the removal of Congo red dye efficiently.

1 Introduction Water is the driving force behind all kinds of life. In 21st century providing clean and reasonable water to fulfill the human requirements is one the major challenge. Currently rapidly advancement in technology and industries unfortunately led to various environmental issues, mainly concerning water resources pollution. While in the current situation, one of the main types of contamination in ecosystem is artificial colours. The removal of complex molecular structures are comparatively difficult [1–3]. Generally, Dye is the initi
