Peptides Fixing Industrial Textile Dyes: A New Biochemical Method in Wastewater Treatment

Cost-effective Treatment Technology on Textile Industrial Wastewater in Bangladesh

To minimize the cost effective treatment process a treatment process has been setup at Dalas Fashion Ltd and Liz Fashion Ltd, Gazipur, Dhaka. The treatment process consisted of a combined process (anaerobic and bio-filtration process) to remove the pollution through biological process. The anaerobic process followed by Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) process and Bio-filtration was maint...

Textile Dyeing Wastewater Treatment

Textile industry can be classified into three categories viz., cotton, woolen, and synthetic fibers depending upon the used raw materials. The cotton textile industry is one of the oldest industries in China. The textile dyeing industry consumes large quantities of water and produces large volumes of wastewater from different steps in the dyeing and finishing processes. Wastewater from printing...

Decolourization of azo dyes in textile wastewater by microbial processes

Tertiary treatment of textile wastewater

Decolorization of dyes from textile wastewater by Trametes versicolor.

The white rot fungus Trametes versicolor was applied to the decolourisation of three synthetic textile dyes in the presence and absence of glucose. Different initial dye concentrations were tested and approximately 97% decolourisation was achieved. It was found that fungal metabolism induced by the glucose as well as the pH play an important role in the decolourisation process. This treatment w...
