The textile industry contributes substantially to water pollution. To investigate bioremediation of dye-containing wastewater, the decolorization and biotransformation of three textile azo dyes, Red HE8B, Reactive Green 27, and Acid Blue 29, were considered using an integrated remediation approach involving the microalga Chlamydomonas mexicana and activated sludge (ACS). At a 5 mg L dye concentration, using C.

- Azoreductase is an enzyme that breaks down toxic textile azo dyes, which are harmful pollutants in water.
- The study involved inserting the azoreductase gene from Klebsiella pneumoniae into E. coli, resulting in effective degradation of specific dyes (Remazol Red-R and Acid-Blue 29).
- Results showed that the crude and purified enzymes significantly reduced dye color within half an hour, confirming the enzyme's potential in bioremediation.
