Abstract: The public demand for color-free waste discharge to receiving waters and tougher color standards have made decolorization of a variety of industrial wastes a top priority. Unfortunately, with the complicated color-causing compounds, the decolorization of these wastes is a difficult and challenging task. This article first describes the background information of dye molecules and dye waste characteristics. The methods for color measurements and standards are then discussed. Different techniques including almost all the known physical, chemical and biological techniques are described for decolorization. Each process alone may not be able to meet the requirements. A combination of these processes, for example, chemical-biological, biological-chemical, chemical-physical, chemical-chemical, etc. is often used. The formation of intermediates during the decolorization process is emphasized. These byproducts may be more toxic than the parent compounds. Thus, the extent of the mineralization in waste decolorizatio...

Treatment of textile dyeing wastewater by biomass of Lactobacillus : Lactobacillus 12 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus
Emine Sayilgan,Ozgur Cakmakci +1 more
TL;DR: Scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy images showed that the biomass characteristics studied were favored by the sorption of the dye from the textile industry wastewater, and these biomasses may be considered as good biosorbents due to their effective yields and the lower cost of the removal of dyes from the effluents of the textile dyeing house.

The degradation of dyestuffs: Part II Behaviour of dyestuffs in aerobic biodegradation tests
TL;DR: In this paper, the results confirmed that dyestuffs are most unlikely to show any significant biodegradation in such tests and that substantial colour removal was observed which may be attributed to the elimination of the dyes by adsorption.
