Effluent from textile industries were treated with enzyme from white rot fungi isolated from outskirts of Mumbai and identified as Polyporus rubidus in our laboratory. Decolorisation of 4 Reactive dyes commonly found in the effluents such as Reactive bue, Reactive orange, Ramazol black and Congo red was examined by treatment with enzyme from Polyporus rubidus. Treatment of effluent was done in ...

Azo dyes represents largest group and most versatile among synthetic dyes. Its Extensiveuse in industries of paper, photography, dying, printing, cosmetics and their subsequent release in industrial effluents by traditional methods of treatment is causing serious environmental problems worlwide. In the present studies a mixed bacterial consortium (azo 8) was isolated from dye polluted soil from...

Azo dyes in textile industry effluent are one of the major toxic contaminants causing a severe threat to life. Bioremediation is most cost-effective and environmentally beneficial innovative biotechnologically technique used mitigate dyes’ effects aquatic environments. The purpose present study was determine azo degradation potential ciliate, Paramecium caudatum, isolated from industrial wastew...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the structure of reactive dye on cotton ink-jet printing. Cotton fabric was printed upon with three commercial cellulosic reactive dyes which are based on the similar chromophore and possess different numbers of reactive and anionic groups. Colour yield and absorbed dye fixation of the printed cotton were evaluated at various pHs. The i...

Currently, biological method has been utilized in the treatment of wastewater -containing synthetic dyes used by textile industries in Iraq. The present work was devoted to study the operating feasibility using reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration (NF) membrane systems as an alternative treatment method of wastewater discharged from Iraqi textile mills. Acid red, reactive black and reactive ...
