Isolation and Characterisation of Microbial Strain AZO29 Capable of AZO Dye Decolourization

screening, identification and optimization of a yeast strain, candida palmioleophila jks4, capable of azo dye decolorization.

background and objectives: synthetic dyes are recalcitrant to degradation and toxic to different organisms. decolorization of textile wastewaters is one of the major concerns since last decades. physical-chemical treatments are very expensive and frequently producing large amounts of toxic wastes. biological treatments can be more convenient. in the present study, an attempt has been made for d...

Bio-decolourization of azo-dye under anaerobic batch conditions

Anaerobic treatment system was used for determination of colour removal under batch conditions. Azo-dye (Reactive Black 5, RB 5) with glucose as a carbon source was used as a synthetic wastewater. The decolourization process follows first order kinetics with respect to RB 5 azo-dye concentration in batch conditions. Decolourization rate constant (k1) value for dye concentration of 150 mgL was 0...

Decolourization of azo dyes in textile wastewater by microbial processes

Isolation and Characterization of Paracoccus sp. GSM2 Capable of Degrading Textile Azo Dye Reactive Violet 5

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...
