TL;DR: Experimental data obtained from the steady-state conditions showed that Grau second order, modified Stover-Kincannon and Contois substrate removal kinetic models were suitable than the other applied models for predicting the performance of lab-scale UASB reactor treating the azo dyes.

TL;DR: In this article, the anaerobic treatability of reactive black 5 in an an-aerobic/aerobic sequential process was investigated in a laboratory scale upflow anaerobatic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor/completely stirred tank (CSTR) with different organic loadings and hydraulic retention times (HRT).

TL;DR: In this paper, a sequential anaerobic/aerobic reactor system was used to treat a simulated textile wastewater containing azo dyes (mixing of 50mgL −1 of Reactive Black 5, 50mg L − 1 of Direct Red 28, 50 ǫ l−1 of Direct Black 38, 50 m ¼ l − 1 Direct Brown 2 and 50 m à l − 2 of Direct Yellow 12 as 250 m − l −1 total concentration), soluble starch, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), acetic acid, glucose, salts,

TL;DR: The degradation of two azo dyes, in use in textile industries in Turkey, were investigated using two facultative microorganisms (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas sp. ) under anaerobic, aerobic, and microaerophilic conditions.

TL;DR: The effect of substrate (glucose) concentrations and alkalinitiy (NaHCO3) on the decolorization of a synthetic wastewater containing Congo Red azo dye was performed in an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB).
