Studies on Dye Reducing Activity of Free And Immobilized Bacterial Isolates on Textile Effluent
Downloads
Dyes and dyestuffs are found in a wide range of industries. Wastewater from these industries contains variety of toxic chemicals and dyes. These dyes and chemicals are toxic and harmful agents in environment and biota of both aquatic as well as terrestrial ecosystem. Many microorganisms are known to have an ability to degrade or reduce the dyes and colors. This ability of microbes can be employed for the treatment of water. Thus, an attempt has beenm made to study the efficiency of dye reduction by microbes.
