Enhanced degradation of eletrooxidized textile effluent by petroleum degrading Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MTCC No.1201) at compressed gas pressure.

The textile dyeing industry produces large volumes of wastewater during dyeing processes where the major step includes the color removal and COD removal. In the present study, the combined electrooxidation process and a novel biological degradation at high compressed gas pressure were studied. The removal of color in the real textile dye effluent was achieved by electrooxidation with Titanium Substrate Insoluble anode and titanium as cathode through generation of hypochlorite.
