Due to the increased demand for clothes by growing population, dye-based sectors have seen fast growth in recent decade. Among all dyes, methylene blue dye is most commonly used textiles, resulting effluent contamination. It carcinogenic, which raises stakes environment. The numerous sources of and their effective treatment procedures are addressed current review. Even among nanoparticles, phot...

Mixed anaerobic bacterial consortia have been show to reduce azo dyes and batch decolourisation tests have also demonstrated that predominantly methanogenic cultures also perform azo bond cleavage. The anaerobic treatment of wool dyeing effluents, which contain acetic acid, could thus be improved with a better knowledge of methanogenic dye degradation. Therefore, the decolourisation of two azo ...

A microbial consortium that is able to grow in wheat bran (WB) medium and decolorize the carcinogenic azo dye Congo red (CR) was developed. The microbial consortium was immobilized on polyurethane foam (PUF). Batch studies with the PUF-immobilized microbial consortium showed complete removal of CR dye (100 mg·L-1) within 12 h at pH 7.5 and temperature 30 ± 0.2 °C under microaerophilic condition...

An isolated fungus, Aspergillus foetidus had the ability to decolourize growth unsupportive medium containing 100 mg L(-1) of reactive black 5 (RB5) dye with >99% efficiency at acidic pH (2-3). Pre-treatment of fungal biomass by autoclaving or exposure to 0.1M sodium hydroxide facilitated more efficient uptake of dye as compared to untreated fungal biomass. Pre-equilibrium biosorption of RB5 dy...

The present study focused on the evaluation of a nonspecific synergistic effect of biogenic silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in combination with biosurfactants against environmental bacteria and fungi. The AgNPs were synthesized in the culture supernatants of the biosurfactant producer Bacillus subtilis grown in brewery effluent, molasses or Luria-Bertani media. Antibacterial activities were tested...

background and purpose: textile effluents are very difficult to treat satisfactorily due to high variations in their compositions. strong color is one of the main characteristics of textile effluent and, if not eliminated, it can cause serious problems to the environment. in the present study, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) were used as an adsorbent for the removal of reactive red-120 (...

Bacterial species capable of decolorizing textile and laboratory dyes were isolated from textile effluent treatment plant. Two bacterial strains (one Gram negative and another Gram positive bacterial strain) were screened for their ability to decolorize Red H5BL (reactive dye), Thymol blue (acid dye), Malachite green, Crystal violet (Triphenyl dye) and Congo red (azo dye). The highest decoloriz...

Bacillus subtilis C3, a commercial textile dye-decolorizing and -degrading bacterium, was isolated from the common effluent treatment plant (CEPT) of the Jetpur textile dyeing and printing industrial sector situated in the district of Rajkot, Gujarat, India. Here, we present the annotated 4.18-Mb draft genome sequence of B. subtilis C3, providing information about the metabolic pathways involve...

The silk dye effluent is one of the most potential harmful chemicals liberated in environment an unexpected manner. Silk waste widely used as a potent dyeing yarn and fabrics many countries has been shown to produce some adverse health effects. This work focuses primarily on effects Moringa oleifera leaf extract testis induced surface ultrastructure Swiss albino mice Mus musculus. taken account...
