An anaerobic sludge (AS), capable of decolorizing a variety of synthetic dyes, was acclimated and is reported here. The sludge presented a much better dye decolorizing ability than that of different individual strains. A broad spectrum of dyes could be decolorized by the sludge. Continuous decolorization tests showed that the sludge exhibited the ability to decolorize repeated additions of dye....

The sorption of three basic dyes, named basic violet 10, basic violet 1, and basic green 4, from aqueous solutions onto sugarcane dust was studied. The results revealed the potential of sugarcane dust, a waste material, to be a low-cost sorbent. Equilibrium isotherms were analyzed using the Langmuir, the Freundlich, and the three-parameter Redlich-Peterson isotherms. In order to determine the b...

Abstract. Irawati W, Pinontoan R, Mouretta B, Yuwono T. 2021. The potential of copper-resistant bacteria Acinetobacter sp. strain CN5 in decolorizing dyes. Biodiversitas 23: 680-686. Bacteria with multi-resistance to copper and dyes may be employed bioremediation dye waste more effectively than physical or chemical remediation. This study aims at determining the effect addition various textile ...

graphene, a new member of the carbon family, was used as an adsorbent due to its exceptional capability to remove rhodamine b (rb) and malachite green (mg), two organic dyes, from aqueous solutions. adsorption kinetics of rb and mg onto graphene and adsorption capacity of the adsorbent were studied. also the effects of parameters, including ph, contact time, temperature, and adsorbent dosage we...
