Marine Bacteria to Decolorize and Detoxify Textile Dyes

Implementing Organization

National Institute of Oceanography (NIO)

About

Marine bacterial strains Shewanella decolorationis(MBTD16) could be used for the decolarization of textile dye Victoria blue (VB-B) and Dietzia sp(DTS26) for Congo red (CR).

Outcome / Output

Bacterially treated samples could enhance the light intensity in the water by 38% and the primary production 5 times higher than the untreated, Dye removal index showed 96% decolorization activity, Water reuse approaches indicated the usage of the dye VB-B and the amount of water could be reduced by ~50%.
