scholarly journals Bacterial Degradation of Synthetic Dye by Pseudomonas sp. Obtained from Dyeing Mill Effluent

Environmental pollution is one of the major concerns of today’s world. Due to rapid industrialization and urbanization, a large number of wastes are generated and discharged into the environment and causing major pollution problems. For obtaining reactive dye decolorizing bacterial isolates, effluent samples were collected from a dyeing mill. From bacterial pure culture, 10 isolates were selected for screening. Screening of these isolates for the capability to decolorize and degrade reactive dye was performed in a nutrient broth medium containing reactive dye. 6 isolates among these bacterial isolates showed dye decolorizing ability within 120 hours of incubation. These isolates were further identified based on cultural, morphological, and biochemical characteristics. These characteristics indicated that these six bacterial isolates were distributed to the bacterial genus of Bacillus (2 isolates), Pseudomonas (2 isolates), Aeromonas (1 isolate), and Alcaligenes (1 isolate). For the study of dye decolorization and degradation, Reactive Dark Blue dye used in jute and textile industries was chosen. Pseudomonas, a prominent dye decolorizing isolate during screening, was taken for the optimization of different physicochemical parameters. This bacterium decolorized and grew well up to 500 mgL-1 of Reactive Blue dye. Pseudomonas sp. showed noteworthy decolorization of approximately 84% at 200 mgL-1 of dye concentration after 96 h of incubation. The optimum temperature for dye degradation was at 37 °C. The maximum level of decolorization for Pseudomonas sp. was observed at pH 8.0. This isolate showed better decolorization extent under static conditions rather than shaking conditions. This result indicated that the dye had been utilized by this bacterial isolate. It can be concluded that Pseudomonas is a prospective candidate in the biodegradation of Reactive Blue dye and might be useful in bioprocess technology used for the bioremediation of dyeing mill effluents.

For biodegradation of reactive dyes used in jute and textile industries, bacteria were isolated from a dyeing mill effluent. Bacteria having a remarkable ability to decolorize and degrade reactive dye were screened by using dye Reactive Dark Blue WR (RDB-WR). Cultural, morphological and biochemical characteristics were observed, and based on these seven isolates having higher decolorizing capability was identified. Among these isolates, one of the prominent dye decolorizing isolates Bacillus sp. was taken for decolorization study. Under different physicochemical conditions, decolorization and degradation capabilities of Bacillus sp. were optimized by using RDB-WR, a dye commonly used in the jute and textile industries. This bacterium decolorized and grew well up to 500 mg L-1 of RDB-WR. Bacillus sp. showed significant decolorization approximately 86% at 200 mg L-1 of RDB-WR after 96 h of incubation. Optimum degradation of dye was achieved at 37 °C. Maximum decolorization was observed at pH 7.0 under static conditions. The study confirmed the potential of Bacillus in the biodegradation of Reactive Dark Blue WR. This bacterial isolate might be prospective in the biological treatment of dyeing mill effluents due to the high extent of decolorization.

  En la presente investigación se planteó el uso de la cepa Pd318 del hongo Pleurotus djamor como agente biorremediador, con el objetivo de evaluar su capacidad para degradar el colorante reactivo azul 19 (A19). Para ello se estudió la influencia que tienen cinco sales inorgánicas en el crecimiento y actividad lignolítica del hongo. Un cribado de sales inorgánicas en placa determinó que las sales CaCl2.2H2O y MnSO4.5H2O tienen mayor influencia en el desarrollo micelial y actividad lignolítica de la cepa. Ensayos de fermentación líquida (FEL) con diferentes combinaciones a distintas concentraciones de las sales de calcio y manganeso permitieron demostrar la capacidad de degradación del colorante azul 19 a los 7 días de fermentación líquida a temperatura ambiente y agitación constante. Los máximos porcentajes de degradación del colorante fueron obtenidos con las combinaciones A1B1 y A2B1 con 43,47% y 41,36%, respectivamente. Se observó que a un pH de 5 unidades se favorece la degradación del colorante. Los estudios en placa señalaron que la adición de sales de calcio y manganeso en 10 días de incubación favorecieron el desarrollo micelial y la actividad lignolítica de Pd318, mientras que en un sistema FEL de 7 días, únicamente la adición de manganeso influye favorablemente a la actividad lignolítica del hongo y en consecuencia a su capacidad de degradación de azul 19.   Palabra clave: Colorante azul 19, degradación de colorantes, enzimas lignolíticas, Pleurotus djamor.   Abstract In the present investigation, the use of the Pd318 strain of the Pleurotus djamor fungus as a bioremediation agent was proposed, with the aim of evaluating its ability to degrade reactive dye blue 19 (A19). For this, the influence of five inorganic salts on the growth and lignolytic activity of the fungus was studied. A plate screening of inorganic salts determined that the CaCl2.2H2O and MnSO4.5H2O salts have a greater influence on the mycelial development and lignolytic activity of the strain. Liquid fermentation tests (FEL) with different combinations at different concentrations of the calcium and manganese salts allowed to demonstrate the degradation capacity of the blue dye 19, after 7 days of liquid fermentation at room temperature and constant stirring, the maximum degradation percentages of the dye were obtained with the combinations A1B1 and A2B1 with 43.47% and 41.36% respectively. It was observed that at a pH of 5 units the degradation of the dye is favored. The plate studies indicated that the addition of calcium and manganese salts in 10 days of incubation, favored mycelial development and the lignolytic activity of Pd318, while in a 7 day FEL system, only the addition of manganese favorably influenced the lignolytic activity of the fungus and consequently its ability to break down blue 19.  Keywords: Blue dye 19, dye degradation, lignolytic enzymes, Pleurotus djamor.

AbstractHierarchical bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) nano-knitted hollow cages have been synthesized by simple hydrothermal method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive x-ray spectrometer, Fourier transform infrared, UV-Vis, and Raman. The photodegradation efficiency of BiVO4 nanocage for universally used methylene blue dye. The BiVO4 hollow nanostructure demonstrated better photocatalytic competence in dye degradation as compared to the commercial TiO2 powders (P25). The excellent dye degradation can be certified to the high crystallisation of monoclinic BiVO4 and hollow nanostructure, which leads to high surface area and small bandgap energy of 2.44 eV.

The major cause of surface and ground water contamination is due to effluent from dyeing industries. The discharged effluent chemicals inhibit light penetration into water bodies and some are considered to be carcinogenic. In this study, the photocatalytic decomposition of the synthetic dye, methylene blue was investigated in the presence of activated TiO2. The TiO2 sample was characterized by using XRD to analyze the presence of anatase and rutile phases. The dye degradation was monitored as a change in absorbance by UV-Visible spectrophotometer. The contributing factors towards dye degradation include both the dye concentration as well as the quantity of TiO2 used. Different quantities of TiO2 in anatase phase was taken and activated under UV radiation for 15 min. and subsequently coated on to TLC plates using 5% polyvinyl alcohol as a binding agent. This photocatalytic plate was kept in the methylene blue dye solution and exposed to sunlight. The results shows that 57% of the 30ppm methylene blue dye gets degraded within 75min., when exposed to UV activated TiO2 in presence of natural sunlight.

Three different types of physical substrata such as sand, granualar activated carbon (GAC) and plastic macaroni beads were selected to identify a suitable solid carrier as a course matrix for the permeable reactive barrier (PRB) in a sand filled two-dimensional laboratory-scale model aquifer. An adhesion experiment was performed and tested with Pseudomonas sp ADP (PASP) under agitated as well as static conditions. In static conditions, adhesion to GAC was the highest (80%) followed by that to beads (60%). No adhesion to sand was observed under static or agitated conditions. Since atrazine is adsorbed by GAC, its bioavailability for degradation by PADP may be affected. To test this, simultaneous loss of atrazine and release of chloride (dechlorination, the first step in the pathway of atrazine degradation by PADP) were determined in the presence and absence of GAC. Although cells remained viable, no significant chloride release was detected. Thus, plastic macaroni beads were identified and selected as the most suitable support for PADP in the biological permeable reactive barrier (BPRB) of the model aquifer.Key words: Suitable Solid; Laboratory Scale; PADPTribhuvan University JournalVol. XXV, No. 1, 2005Page:119-128Uploaded date: 26, September, 2010

The present investigation was carried out to exploit bacterial endophytes associated with root and leaf tissue of rice plant for plant growth promotion (PGP) and colonization study in vitro. Total 10 endophytic bacterial isolates (Pseudomonas sp.) were evaluate for PGP traits like P solubilization, production of Indole acetic acid (IAA), siderophore, ACC deaminase, protease, cellulase, fluorescent pigment, urease and denitrification activity. Out of 10 endophytic bacteria 30 %, 60 %, 20 %, 70 %, 10 % and 10 % were positive for siderophore, protease, cellulase, fluorescent pigment, urease and denitrification respectively. Maximum IAA production was recorded with isolate LRBLE7 (18.8 μgml-1) followed by LRBRE4 (16.0 μgml-1) and maximum P-solubilization was recorded with isolate LRBRE4 (5.8 mg 100 ml-1) followed by LRBLE7 (4.4 mg 100 ml-1). ACC deaminase production was recorded with isolate LRBLE6 (O.D=0.352 nm) followed by LRBRE5 (O.D=0.324nm). Three potential isolates (LRBRE4, LRBRE6 and LRBLE7) were selected on the basis of multiple PGP traits and were subjected to colonization study of rice seedling in vitro. Potential bacterial isolates can be exploited for improving growth and productivity in rice under sustainable management system.
