Biodegradation of Turquoise Blue Dye by Bacillus Megaterium Isolated from Industrial Effluent

Abstract: Turquoise blue dye (Remazol Blue BB) is a reactive dye which is used by almost all textile industries. The sample was collected from dye industries near VATVA G.I.D.C. (Gujarat) and adjourning surrounding area. On the basis of colony morphology and certain biochemical tests the strain was identified as Bacillus megaterium species and gave maximum decolourization of turquoise blue dye within 48 hours at pH 7.00 and 37°C in the medium followed by blue M2R, Safranin, Congo red, Malachite green Orange ME2RL and Ye… Show more

“…Pradeep Varma reported on the effect of various temperatures (25 to 50 °C) on decolourization of Ranocid Fast Blue (RFB) and Procion Brilliant Blue-H-GR (PBB-HGR) by Serratia marcescens they have observed faster decolourization at 26 °C within 24 h incubation [24]. In the present study, the optimum temperature for decolourization of mixed dyes by the isolated bacterial strain was found to be 28 °C which showed decolourization up to 94% by the end of 5 th day.…”

“…6). The maximum achieved biodegradation % age was the combined effect of these parameters rather than individual affect [2,5,19]. The most suitable conditions observed for maximum biodegradation were pH 5.32, inoculum size 6.78 mL, time period 8 days, temperature 27.11°C and dye conc.…”

“…Conventional wastewater treatment processes are often ineffective in dyes removal from the effluent [1]. Conventional techniques like, ozonation, electrolysis and coagulation are often costly, limited applicability and produce more toxic secondary amines [4,5].…”

“…Microorganisms use carbon and nitrogen as source of energy and lead to biodegradation of synthetic dyes. Klebsiella and Bacillus have been found to use glucose, starch, sucrose and yeast extract as carbon source and peptone as nitrogen source resulting in degradation of Turquoise blue and Malachite green dyes (Joshi et al, 2013;Ramezani et al, 2013).…”
