“…Agricultural residual materials have complex structures with high strength, environmentally friendly nature, low cost, and global availability. A few important agro-waste products, which are suitable for reducing chemical contaminants in water, have been reviewed for their applicability for remediation of chemical contaminants in water systems [45]. A review of the above research suggests that cheaply available agricultural residues are available globally as low-cost materials, which could be used for two purposes: Firstly, their economic and safe recycling to comply with a re-use strategy for environmental protection, and secondly, for the reduction of colour in textile wastewater.…”

This article aims to provide information on two aspects: firstly, waste management of residual biological agro-industrial materials generated from agriculture, and secondly, for the sustainable remediation of textile wastewater. Annually, huge amounts of solid renewable biomass materials are generated worldwide from agricultural and farming sectors. The generation of these vast amounts of solid wastes could be utilised as a valuable and renewable natural resource for various applications. The goal of promoting sustainable development has increased the interest in recycling wastes economically and in an eco-friendly way. This article reviews the published research on this topic and discusses the usage of these solid substrates in the remediation of a major environmental component, textile dye-contaminated water. The purpose of this article is to discuss an integrated and cross-disciplinary approach to sustainable solid and liquid waste management and remediation of environmental components and to report the biological approaches and their efficiency in a chemical-free and economically viable bioremediation process for large volumes of dye-contaminated water resources.
