The conventional rinsing after bleaching to remove the residual hydrogen peroxide, harmful to the dyes either in solution or on the fabric, was replaced by enzymatic cleaning using catalases. The catalasetreated bleaching liquor was reused for dyeing. Though no hydrogen peroxide was detected after the enzymatic process, the bleaching bath composition caused unacceptable colour changes on dyed f...

Azo dyes are the azo colorants with about 70% dyestuff. persist in environment for years and toxic to human life. In present study, it was attempted decolorize selected azodye by three biofertilizers: Rhizobium sp., Azospirillum sp. Pseudomonas fluorescens whereas also prove biofertlizer’s degradation property. Initially decolorization of 10% dye silk dyeing effluent biotreated above mentioned ...

Textile industry can be classified into three categories viz., cotton, woolen, and synthetic fibers depending upon the used raw materials. The cotton textile industry is one of the oldest industries in China. The textile dyeing industry consumes large quantities of water and produces large volumes of wastewater from different steps in the dyeing and finishing processes. Wastewater from printing...

The goal of this study was to utilize carrier for accelerating the rate of dyeing not only to enhance dyeing of polyester fabrics dyed with disperse dyes 3a,b, but also to save energy. Both the color strength expressed as dye uptake and the fastness properties of the dyed fabrics were evaluated.

The study has been focused on effect of untreated distillery effluent (Devans Breweries Ltd., Jammu) on germination of gobi sarson (Brassica napus. L. var. Punjabi Special). Six treatments (E0.... E100) each having three replicates were made. E0 was taken as control in which tap water was used for irrigation of the plants. For E20, E40, E60, E80 and E100, different concentrations i.e. 20, 40, 6...

The large land area requirement of constructed wetlands (CWs) is a major limitation of its application especially in densely populated and mountainous areas. This review paper provides insights on different strategies applied for the reduction of land area including stack design and intensification of CWs with different aeration methods. The impacts of different aeration methods on the performa...

The relationship between glucose-induced insulin secretion and metabolism of inositol phospholipid was investigated by means of an islet perifusion method and direct measuring of inositol phosphates after sonicating the islets. The results showed that the time course of inositol phospholipid breakdown is coincident with the first phase of glucose-induced insulin secretion. Analysis of the efflu...
