Hydrothermal coating of ZnO nanoparticles onto the surface of calcium alumino silicate beads was carried out under hydrothermal conditions (T, 220 degrees C; P, 300 psi; duration, 12 h). The reagent grade ZnO and calcium alumino silicate beads (0.5-1.0 mm in diameter, specially prepared as supporting material for ZnO) were used as starting materials along with 1M NaOH as a mineraliser leading to the formation of a new class of photocatalytic material. The effect of the hydrothermal experimental parameters on the coating of ZnO nanoparticles, and the grain morphology, etc. was investigated and thus obtained ZnO coated calcium alumino silicate beads were characterised using X-ray diffraction, SEM, Fourier transform infrared and positron annihilation spectroscopy. Sunlight and ultraviolet light mediated photocatalytic degradation of amaranth dye was studied using hydrothermally prepared ZnO coated calcium alumino silicate beads. The effect of various parameters such as initial dye concentration, catalytic loading, pH of the medium, time duration and light source on the photodegradation of amaranth dye was investigated. Silk industrial effluents containing amaranth dye as a major constituent along with other dyes and dyeing auxiliaries were treated using ZnO coated calcium alumino silicate beads.
