Abstract

The oxidation of the often used oxazine direct dye C.I. Direct Blue 106 (Direct Dye 106) in an aqueous solution (600 mg L-1) by ozonation was investigated. VIS spectra showed degradation of the oxazine groups in the initial Direct Dye 106 structure. The oxidation by-products, such as sulphate, nitrate, nitrite, chloride ions and phenolic compounds, were identified by MS-MS and the LC-MS analyses. After ozonation the wastewater containing the Direct Dye 106 showed no toxic characteristics, according to Daphnia magna test (24 h- EC50 > 75%).
