Congo Red Decolorization Using Textile Filters and Laccase-Based Nanocomposites in Continuous Flow Bioreactors

Abstract: Removal of azo and diazo dye content from textile industry wastewaters is crucial due to their environmental impact. Here, we report on the use of the fungal laccase from Pycnoporus sanguineus CS43 immobilized on silica nanoparticles and entrapped in textile-based filters for the degradation of Congo Red. Laccase immobilization and synthesis of the nanocomposites were carried out by two different methods, one in the presence of acetone and the second using water as solvent. This led to a change in the hydropho… Show more

“…Afterward, the synthesized magnetite nanoparticles displayed an average hydrodynamic diameter of 88.59 nm with a polydispersity index of 0.182 as determined by DLS analysis with the aid of a Zetasizer Nano ZS, (Malvern, PA, USA). The morphology of those nanoparticles was analyzed as previously described by Lopez-Barbosa et al, (2020) [9].…”

“…About 70% of the dyes present in textile effluents contain azo (N = N) chromophores, which are thought to be responsible for fluctuations in the chemical oxygen demand, color, salinity and pH [9]; thus, numerous research efforts have focused on the development of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) to treat these effluents. AOPs are oxidative methods based on the generation of intermediate radicals, mainly hydroxyl radicals (OH), that have been successfully applied in wastewater treatment to degrade many organic compounds [10].…”

“…The immobilization of these enzymes mainly focuses on silica and its composites [38,39]. Lopez-Barbosa et al [40] performed experiments with laccase immobilized on functionalized silica for decolorizing Congo Red. The silica was modified with APTES (γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane), and the NH 2 groups were subsequently activated by adding glutaraldehyde (GA).…”

“…Immobilization or encapsulation can be achieved either by physical adsorption or by covalent bonding. Nanostructured materials such as titania, alumina, silica and magnetite offer rather simplified immobilization routes, high chemical and physical stability, ease of handling, low costs, and relatively high yields [ 10 , 11 , 25 , 26 , 27 ]. In contrast, microencapsulation has been employed extensively as an efficient route to protect or isolate substances from harmful environments [ 28 ], hence, serving as a viable solution for oxidative degradation.…”
