Dyes are an important class of organic pollutants and well known for their hazardous effects to the aquatic life in general and the human beings in particular. In order to reduce the negative effects of dye contaminated wastewater to the humans and the environment, the wastewater must be treated carefully before discharge into main streams. Advances in science and technology have led to the evolution of several techniques for the removal of dyes from industrial and domestic effluents. In this review, the more recent methods for the removal of dyes from water and wastewater have been discussed. Wastewater treatment techniques such as adsorption, oxidation, flocculation-coagulation, membrane filtration and biological treatment have been highlighted. Besides, efforts were made to review all the available techniques and recently published studies from 2010-2014. Furthermore, performances and special features of these technologies have been summarised. Advantages and limitations of each technique are also presented. Literature survey reveals that chemical oxidation, adsorption, and biological treatments have been the most frequently investigated techniques for dye removal over the past few years.

“…Dixit and Goyal (2013) stated that the reproductive toxicity was caused by indigo carmine in Swiss albino mice. An other report by Bazin et al (2012) on toxic effects of synthetic indigo dye, Bazin et al (2012) indicated agonistic and antagonistic estrogen activity of several textile dyes and extracts of blue jeans textiles wastewater samples and that several textile dyes were potential endocrine disrupting agents.…”

“…Numerous studies concerning the genotoxic effects of synthetic indigo and its dye solutions have been performed (Dixit and Goyal 2013;Bhattacharjee 2014;Bazin et al 2012;Sarıkaya et al 2012) and mutagenic activity of synthetic indigo was revealed using Ames test (Rannug et al 1992). Furthermore, the lethal doses of patent blue and indigocarmin was reported to be 50 mg/ml (Sarıkaya et al 2010).…”

The role of natural indigo dye in alleviation of genotoxicity of sodium dithionite as a reducing agent

et al. 2016

Indigo blue is a natural dye used for thousands of years by civilizations to dye fabric blue and it is naturally obtained from Isatis tinctoria. I. tinctoria is not only used for extraction of indigo blue color but also used medicinally in Traditional Chinese Medicine because of its active compounds. Sodium dithionite (Na 2 S 2 O 4 ) is used in dye bath for indigo blue extraction, but this reducing agent and its derivatives are major pollutants of textile industry and subsequently have hazardous influences on public health. Herein, the present study was designed to obtain the high yield of natural indigo dye but with low possible toxic effect. In this context, genotoxic effects of particular combinations of natural dye solutions obtained from Isatis tinctoria subsp. tomentolla with Na 2 S 2 O 4 as reducing agent were investigated. Dye solutions were obtained using two different pH levels (pH 9 and 11) and three different concentrations of Na 2 S 2 O 4 (2.5, 5 and 10 mg/ml). In addition to the dye solutions and reducing agent, aqueous extracts of I. tinctoria were assessed for their genotoxicity on human lymphocytes. For in vitro testing of genotoxicity, chromosomal aberrations (CAs), sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) and mitotic indexes (MI) assays were used. Accordingly, Na 2 S 2 O 4 caused significant increases in CA and SCE as well decrease in MI but the genotoxic effects of sodium dithionite were reduced with natural indigo dye. As a result, aqueous extracts of Isatis leaves removed the toxic effects of sodium dithionite and showed anti-genotoxic effect. For the optimal and desired quality but with less toxic effects of natural dye, 2.5 mg/ml (for wool yarn) and 5 mg/ml (for cotton yarn) of Na 2 S 2 O 4 doses were found to be the best doses for reduction in the dye bath at Ph 9.

“…In addition, highly recalcitrant compounds are resistant to decomposition under action of natural sunlight and chemical oxidants (Bafana et al 2011;Punzi et al 2015a). Many of the azo dyes are toxic to aquatic environment and human heath (Brillas and Martinez-Huitle 2015), carcinogenic (de Lima et al 2007), mutagenic (Chequer et al 2011), genotoxic (Chequer et al 2009), cytotoxic (Ferraz et al 2011), estrogenic, and anti-estrogenic (Bazin et al 2012). Besides, their biotransformation products, such as aromatic amines and derivatives, are usually more toxic than the untreated target compound (Byberg et al 2013;Punzi et al 2015b).…”

The role of different operational parameters related to Fenton reactions (pH, concentration of Fe and HO, and reaction time) and of Cl and SO was investigated in the degradation of the azo dye Direct Red 81, expressed in terms of its decolorization. The factorial design and Pareto's charts showed that only Fe concentration and pH influence the decolorization under the conditions evaluated. So, only these parameters were optimized using the response surface model. Under the best experimental conditions (initial pH 2.5, 11 mg L Fe, 78 mg L HO, and 20 min of reaction), 94 % of decolorization was achieved. However, even under the these conditions, but in the presence of Cl and SO , a striking loss of efficiency was observed as the concentration of these ions was increased, due the formation of chloride- and sulfate-iron complexes and less reactive inorganic radicals (Cl and SO). The results show that the presence of Cl is more deleterious, since sulfate-iron complexes are more reactive towards HO, and the SO turns out to favor the degradation. On the other hand, the negative effect of Cl can be compensated by increasing the chloride concentration up to 300 mmol L. In addition, although a high degradation level has been obtained by monitoring the dye absorbance and by HPLC-UV, a low mineralization occurred, being generated degradation products of higher ecotoxicity to Vibrio fischeri, showing the need of subsequent studies to identify these compounds as well as the application of additional treatments aiming the complete mineralization of the dye.
