APPLICATION OF FUZZY LOGIC IN THE EVALUATION OF ADSORPTIVE CAPACITY IN DIFFERENT ALTERNATIVE BIOADSOVENTS
bioadsorbents; textile dye; simulation.
In this work, research data, whose themes are alternative biosorbents for the removal of the textile dye Turquoise Remazol from wastewater from the fabric dyeing process, were used as a basis for studies for the creation of a model for the computational simulation of kinetic parameters of the process. At the beginning, a bibliographical survey was carried out to find works on the subject and, then, a survey of the kinetic variables that influenced this process, in order to map them and verify their potential in the process through their variations. After that, a standardization of the intervals presented in the studies found was carried out so that the construction of the simulation environment was possible. Finally, the model was built in the InFuzzy software, with the membership functions of the input and output variables of the process, together with the block of rules, and the task of simulating the data and comparing them with the values found in the literature was started. to analyze its efficiency. The obtained results show that it is still necessary to adapt the simulation membership functions so that the model presents better assertiveness and accuracy in the presented values. However, the model corrections are minimal, because as shown in the graphs made by the Scilab® software, the values are close to what was expected, and better accuracy can be obtained with small adjustments in the membership functions.
