Biotechnological potential of microorganisms from textile effluent: isolation, enzymatic activity and dye discoloration

Isolation, characterization and screening of actinomycetes from textile industry effluent for dye degradation

Textile industry is one of the oldest and largest industries of India. Synthetic dyes are coloring agents mainly used in textile industries which generate a huge amount of wastewater in the process of dyeing. It is estimated that these industries discharge around 280,000 tons of dyes worldwide every year into the environment (Tom Sinoy and Anuradha Mohan, 2011). Discharge of these colored efflu...

Physico-chemical Characterization of the Textile Dye Effluent and Isolation of Lignin Degrading Fungi Physico-Chemical Characterization of Textile Dye Effluent

Bioremediation of Textile Dye Effluent by Bacillus and Pseudomonas Spp

Textile effluent is one of the known sources of pollution, which usually contain several chemicals, which contaminate the receiving water. This study was conducted to understand the ability of Bacillus sp., and Pseudomonas sp., on decolourization and normalization of other physicochemical parameters, such as odour, temperature, pH, total solids, total dissolved solids, total suspended solids, t...

Artificial neural network modeling for decolorization of textile dye effluent

Introduction Effluents from the textile industry are not only colored but also contain large amounts of color, COD, BOD and dissolved solids. Textile industry is the one producing huge amount of wastewater. Due to stringent environmental regulations, treatment is mandatory before discharge the effluent. Conventional treatment methods include activated carbon adsorption, solvent extraction, chem...

Bioremediation of Textile Dye Effluent by Shewanella Putrefaciens

The aim of the present study was to use a bacterial isolate for decolorization and reduction of pollution from textile effluent. Shewanella putrefaciens was isolated from raw textile effluent and used to decolorize the effluent, in unoptimized and optimized conditions. In unoptimized condition the decolorization was 27.95% whereas in optimized condition it reached 63.15% (Chrysophenine optimize...
