Accelerated biodecolorization and detoxification of synthetic textile dye Acid Maroon V by bacterial consortium under redox mediator system.

UNLABELLED

The treatment of textile industrial wastewater is an important concern owing to its negative impact on the biosphere. The present study highlighted dye decolorization potential of bacterial consortium EDPA containing AGYP1 and AGYP2 in the presence of redox mediators. Rapid decolorization of Acid Maroon V (100 mg l) was achieved in the presence of lawsone compared to other redox mediators. The dye decolorization was best fitted with first order kinetics with higher reaction kinetics ( = 0.328 h) and regression coefficient (R = 0.979). The removal of dye by the consortium was 1.47 times faster in 8 h with 0.01 mM lawsone. The consortium EDPA was able to decolorize 1200 mg l concentration of dye with apparent , and values 1000 mg l h, 5000 mg l and 0.2 h, respectively. The lawsone-mediated system could decolorize the dye 80.44% in 10 h at the end of 11 dye spiking cycle. The superior biodecolorization of 14 different textile dyes was obtained in the presence of lawsone-mediated system. The intracellular enzyme activities of azoreductase, NADH-DCIP reductase, laccase, manganese peroxidase and lignin peroxidase increased significantly. The sequential microaerophilic-aerobic incubation resulted into 89.31% reduction of total aromatic amines. The microbial toxicity, phytotoxicity and genotoxicity measurements revealed biotransformation of toxic nature of dye Acid Maroon V into non-toxic metabolites by the action of consortium EDPA, and thus its suitability for biotreatment of dye containing industrial effluents.
