decolorization of remazol brilliant blue r (rbbr) by trametessp. pellets was studied in a batch reactor. dye removal process was performed in shaken flasks which contained 100 ml of rbbr aqueous solution and fungal pellets. the process was followed for 48 h and the dye removal was analyzed at a visible spectrum of 590 nm. response surface methodology (rsm) employing box behnken design at three ...

This study aims to investigate the anaerobic degradation kinetics of reactive dye, C.I. Reactive Red 141 (Evercion Red H-E7B) by partially granulated anaerobic mixed culture using three carbon sources, namely modified starch (MS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and acrylic size (AS) during batch incubation. There is a first-order kinetics reaction in the decolorization processes using MS and PVA as ca...

Current study has evaluated the decolorization of textile dye Red 3BN by Peniciliium chrysogenum, Cladosporium sp. and Aspergillus niger, isolated from textile industry effluent at Bangalore. The organisms were maintained in the laboratory in Potato Dextrose Agar medium. Production of the enzyme laccase by all the 3 strains of fungi has been confirmed through guaiacol bioassay followed by decol...

A bacterial strain SVM1 with remarkable ability to decolorization textile dye Reactive Red ME4BL was isolated from the activated sludge soil collected from a common effluent treatment plant (CETP) in Perunduari, Erode district Tamil Nadu. Different parameters such as temperature and pH were optimized for decolorization of Red ME4BL by using isolated bacteria. The most promising bacterial isolat...

The decolorization and degradation of Direct Blue 71 were investigated using a mono culture of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The bacterium was able to decolorize the dye medium to 70.43 % within 48 h under microaerophilic conditions. The medium was then aerated for 24 h to promote the biodegradation of the aromatic amines generated from azo bond cleavage. Reduction in total organic carbon in dye medi...

BACKGROUND In recent years, enzymatic-assisted removal of hazardous dyes has been considered as an alternative and eco-friendly method compared to those of physicochemical techniques. The present study was designed in order to obtain the optimal condition for laccase-mediated (purified from the ascomycete Paraconiothyrium variabile) decolorization of Acid Blue 92; a monoazo dye, using response ...

BACKGROUND Laccases have good potential as bioremediating agents and can be used continuously in the immobilized form like many other enzymes. METHODS In the present study, laccase from Cyathus bulleri was immobilized by entrapment in Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA) beads cross-linked with either nitrate or boric acid. Immobilized laccase was used for dye decolorization in both batch and continuous ...

Background: Azo dyes are xenobiotic compounds that have bioaccumulated in the environment due to escalated industrial development. These are hazardous in nature, possessing carcinogenic and mutagenic effects on human beings. Objectives: The perspective of the present study was to isolate and to determine azo dye (Reactive Orange-16) degrading potential of...

The textile industries by for the most passionate user of synthetic dyes are in need of ecoefficient solutions for its coloured effluents. The decolorization and detoxification potential of white rot fungi can be harnessed. Laccase has been utilized in biological treatment of effluents containing chemical dyes. The present study is planned to study the screening and chrecterization of laccase f...

The aim of the present study is to analyze the ability of the white rot fungi Coriolus Versicolor (MTCC 138) in the decolorization of Cibacron Yellow S-3R, a recalcitrant azo reactive textile dye. The influencing parameters that affect the percentage of decolorization rates are optimized in batch mode. The optimal values of the parameters such as mycelia age, temperature, pH, initial dye concen...
