Degradation of bisphenol a by Aspergillus Sp. isolated from tannery industry effluent
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical produced in large quantities for use primarily in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. It is an endocrine disruptor, which can mimic the body’s own hormones such as estrogen and may lead to negative health effects. The tannery effluent was used as a source for isolation of Aspergillus sp. Physiochemical analysis of the effluent sample was do...
متن کاملBiosorption of Chromium from Tannery Effluent Using Biomass of Sargassum
The release of chromium into water bodies is one of the major concerns of tannery industries. The present work deals with the determination of Chromium removal capacity of powdered biomass of Sargassum wightii (Greville) in synthetically prepared as well as real tannery effluent. The maximum adsorption was obtained after 12 hours of exposure at pH-4, in 8g/L biomass concentration of the seaweed...
متن کاملA Study on removal of chromium from tannery effluent treatment of chrome tanning waste water using tannery solid waste
This study illustrates the process of removal of chromium from chrome tanning waste-water by fly ash which was drive from chrome shaving dust. This experiment was carried out in a batch process with laboratory prepared adsorbent samples and chrome tanning water collected from local tanneries. The influence of various factors likes adsorbent doses, contact time, and initial concentration of chro...
متن کاملTannery Effluent Treatment by Yeast Species Isolates from Watermelon
The quest for an effective alternative means for effluent treatment is a major concern of the modern-day scientist. Fungi have been attracting a growing interest for the biological treatment of industrial wastewater. In this study, Saccharomycescerevisiae and Torulasporadelbrueckii were isolated from spoiled watermelon and inoculated into different concentrations of effluent. The inoculants wer...
متن کاملErythrocyte Abnormalities in a Freshwater Fish, Labeo Rohita Exposed to Tannery Industry Effluent
The erythrocyte abnormality test was analyzed in kidney cells of freshwater fish, Labeo rohita exposed to tannery industry effluent. The 96h LC50 value of tannery effluent against fish was calculated by Finney method and it comes out to be 7.07%. Three sublethal concentrations on basis of 96h LC50 value (3.53%, 1.76% and 0.88%) were selected. Fishes were exposed to these concentrations for 24h,...
