Exploring fungal-mediated solutions and its molecular mechanistic insights for textile dye decolorization.

Decolorization of textile dyes and study of their intermediate compounds is necessary to comprehend the mechanism of dye degradation. In the present study, different fungal mediated solutions were explored to provide an alternative to treat the reactive dyes. Growing biomass of Pleurotus sajor caju showed 83% decolorization (249.

Mechanistic insights on enzyme mediated-metabolite cascade during decolourization of Reactive Blue 13 using novel microbial consortium.

Understanding the role of oxido-reductase enzymes followed by deciphering the functional genes and their corresponding proteins are crucial for the speculation of molecular mechanism for azo dye degradation. In the present study, decolourization efficiency of developed microbial consortium was tested using 100 mgL reactive blue 13 (RB13) and the results showed ∼92.67% decolourization of RB13 at 48 h of incubation.

Hybrid electrocoagulation and laccase mediated treatment for efficient decolorization of effluent generated from textile industries.

Enzymatic (laccase mediated) decolorization of dyes remains inefficient for recalcitrant dyes, which can be better handled by electrocoagulation (EC). However, EC is energy intensive and produce large amount of sludge. In light of the same, present study offers a promising solution for the treatment of textile effluent meeting surface discharge norms, using hybridization of enzymatic and electrocoagulation treatment.

Utilization of starch effluent from a textile industry as a fungal growth supplement for enhanced α-amylase production for industrial application.

Desizing process in textile industry produces large volume of starch effluent. This carbon-rich waste can be used for resource recovery, such as the production of industrially useful enzymes. The present work assesses the usability of starch effluent from textile industry as an additional carbon source for enhanced production of α-amylase during solid-state fermentation (SSF) of agro-wastes by Trichoderma reesei.
