Decolorization of Brilliant Blue G dye mediated by degradation of the microbial consortium of Galactomyces geotrichum and Bacillus sp.

Decolorization and biodegradation of reactive dyes and dye wastewater by a developed bacterial consortium

“…The advantage of mixed culture is apparent as some strains can collectively carry out such biodegradation tasks that no individual pure strain can achieve due to synergistic metabolic activities of microbial community. In microbial consortium the individual strains may attack the dye molecule at different positions or may utilize metabolites produced by the co-existing strains for further decomposition (Tony et al 2009;Moosvi et al 2007;Asgher et al 2007;Jadhav et al 2008). Apart from decolorization by live cultures, low or negligible decolorization (about 3 to 5%) of Green HE4BD were observed by autoclaved cells of an individual as well as consortium GR indicating that microbial decolorization was primarily due to biological degradation rather than adsorption.…”

Industrial Wastewater Treatment: A Challenging Task in the Industrial Waste Management

“…Their application would virtually eliminate major operating costs when solar radiation is used instead of artificial UV light. The ferrioxalate solution that has long been used as a chemical actinomètre can be used in the process of photo Fenton to derive further benefit by replacing UV light with solar radiation [73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80]. Recently, several attempts have been made to increase the photocatalytic efficiency of TiO 2 that include the deposition of noble metal doping ions, addition of inorganic adsorbent, catalysts of the coupling, the use of nonporous films, and so on.…”
