“…Researchers are exploring new and potential raw materials for the extraction of major carbon sources to be used in the media which will support the growth of microorganisms. Glucose yield from the pseudo stem by cellulose mediated hydrolysis was observed to be much higher when compared with the acid hydrolysis (Seenuvasan et al, 2017). However, the fermentable sugars extracted from the Palmyra sprout peels in this study were identified to be a suitable raw material in favour of glucose by treatment with acid.…”

“…However, the fermentable sugars extracted from the Palmyra sprout peels in this study were identified to be a suitable raw material in favour of glucose by treatment with acid. The hydrolysed peels after neutralization were found to possess a -1 sugar concentration of 1.27 mg ml (Sathya et al, 2017).…”

“…Several agro wastes sugarcane bagasse, rice straw, bio-waste, peels of cassava, starch (cassava tubers) potato and banana (Arapoglou et al, 2010;Benjamin et al, 2014) have been explored for their reducing sugars to use as feedstock in biofuel production. The use of acid hydrolyzed potato peels for the extraction of total reducing sugars (Bhattacharyya et al, 2013), cassava peel residues for its conversion into fermentable sugars (Souto et al, 2017), pseudostem (Seenuvasan et al, 2017) softwood (pine), hardwood (poplar, birch and beech), wheat straw and hemp (bast and harl) (Buzała et al, 2017) and Aloe vera rinds (Sathya et al, 2017) are also being bung exploited for raw material as an alternative to carbohydrates Borassus flabellifer is a palm tree classified under Palmae family native to Africa. Palmyra sprout (known as Palmyra Tuber) is a sprout that grows on palmyra palms.…”

“…The length of the shoot is between 12-15 cm before harvesting. Palmyra seed-shoot possess high starch content and are used in the preparation of palm spread and palm toffee (Churasiya et al, 2014).The use of Borassus flabellifer peels for the analysis of glucose has been reported (Sathya et al, 2017) Sulphonated azo dyes are imposing a major threat to the aquatic life forms when discharged into the water stream. Proper treatment can reduce the risk of hazard to the live forms which are accompanied by biological treatments.…”

The present investigation deals with the extraction of sugars from tuber peels of Borassus flabellifer and their subsequent utilization for the growth of a bacterial isolate. The study also aims to degrade the textile effluent using B. flabellifer sprout peel sugar supplemented bacterial isolate. The isolate was screened from a textile effluent and was identified as Pseudomonas fluorescence. The sugar peels were pretreated by dilute acid hydrolysis and extracted sugars were used as supplement for the growth of Pseudomonas fluorescence. The textile effluent was treated with the bacterial isolate for degradation. The decolorization and degradation was monitored using UV-Visible spectrophotometry, Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopy and Gas Chromatography With Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). B. flabellifer sprout peel sugar was supplemented as a macronutrient to support the growth of Pseudomonas fluorescence for the degradation of textile effluent. Higher decolorization efficiency (95%) within 7 days under aerobic condition at pH-7.0 and temperature 35˚C was achieved. The present study showed that the growth of Pseudomonas fluorescence was possible in tuber peel extracted sugars which was used as a carbon source. The bacteria grown in tuber peel extracted sugars was able to decolorize and degrade the textile effluent.
