A potential bacterial strain GSM2, capable of degrading an azo dye Reactive Violet 5 as a sole source of carbon, was isolated from textile mill effluent from Solapur, India. The 16S rDNA sequence and phenotypic characteristics indicated an isolated organism as Paracoccus sp. GSM2. This strain exhibited complete decolorization of Reactive Violet 5 (100 mg/L) within 16 h, while maximally it could...

Bacillus halodurans MTCC 865 was employed for decolorization of textile azo dye, Acid Black-24 (AB-24). Thousand mgl⁻¹ of AB-24 was decolorized with 90% efficiency by the strain within 6 hrs at pH 9 and 37 °C with 5% NaCl under static conditions in screening medium. Decolorization was evaluated by measuring the periodic decrease in absorbance at 557 nm (λ(max)). Biodegradation of Acid Black-24 ...

The decolorization potential of textile dye Reactive Red 198 (RR198) by Aspergillus parasiticus fungal biosorbent has been investigated as a function of initial pH, contact time, biosorbent and initial dye concentration in a batch system. Maximum dye biosorption capacity 1.03x10 mol g was observed at pH 2.0 and 2.0 g L of biosorbent concentration. Biosorption equilibrium was attained within 50 ...

The current work is aimed to evaluate the degradation of Reactive Red 35 (RR35) by Pseudomonas aeruginosa ARSKS20 that decolorized 100 mg/L dye at 8.27 mg/L/h rate under optimum conditions. Induction of laccase, lignin peroxidase, tyrosinase, Veratryl alcohol oxidase, NADH-DCIP reductase, azoreductase enzymes during dye decolorization suggested their active participation in dye degradation. Met...

a comparison of the photoefficiency of ni(ii) and nis incorporated into zeolite p towards photodecolorization of eriochrome black t dye solution was investigated in a photocatalytic reactor using uv lamp as a light source. the effect of various experimental variables on the decolorization performance of the process was evaluated by examining catalyst dosage, temperature, initial dye concentrati...

The photocatalytic decolorization of aqueous solutions Brown NG, a commercial textile dye, was studied using titana Degussa P-25 as a catalyst for the first time. The experiments were carried out in a batch reactor with the use of artificial light sources (UV-C). The effects of various process variables on decolorization performance of the process have been investigated. The photodegradatio...

halophilic and halotolerant microorganisms are good candidates for decolorization of azo dyeswhich are routinely used in the dyeing process in textile industries. in this paper, theoptimization of biological decolorization of synthetic dye solutions containing remazol black bby the previously isolated halophilic bacterium halomonas sp. d2 is investigated. in a primaryinvestigation using a one-f...

Studies were carried out on the decolorization of azo dyes by Bacillus species from effluent of textile industries. About 10 bacterial strains were isolated from the effluent of textile industries, Bacillus sp. showed remarkable ability in decolorizing the widely utilized azo dyes. Phenotypic characterization and phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequence comparisons indicate that these s...
