In the present study, treatment of textile effluent was carried through sequential electro oxidation (EO) and photo electro oxidation (PEO) using RuO-IrO coated titanium electrode as an anode and cathode followed by biodegradation.

Results from16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the predominant bacteria species detected in the biofilm of MS and BR metals during 360 days of exposure were EN14, EN15, EN16, and EN17. The weight loss results revealed that a higher corrosion rate was observed in MS (0.
