Journal ArticleDOI

A critical review on the treatment of dye-containing wastewater: Ecotoxicological and health concerns of textile dyes and possible remediation approaches for environmental safety

TL;DR: In this article , the effects of textile dyes on water bodies, aquatic flora, and human health are discussed, with a focus on the advantages and drawbacks of these various approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plastic wastes biodegradation: Mechanisms, challenges and future prospects.

TL;DR: This review aims to comprehensively highlight the role of microbes, with special emphasis on algae, on the entire plastic biodegradation process focusing on the depolarization of various synthetic plastic types and the ability of insects' gut microbial consortium to degrade synthetic plastic wastes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ecofriendly biodegradation of Reactive Black 5 by newly isolated Sterigmatomyces halophilus SSA1575, valued for textile azo dye wastewater processing and detoxification.

TL;DR: A total of seven yeast strains from 18 xylanolytic and/or xylose-fermenting yeast species isolated from the wood-feeding termite Reticulitermes chinenesis could efficiently decolorize various azo dyes under high-salt conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance of a Newly Isolated Salt-Tolerant Yeast Strain Sterigmatomyces halophilus SSA-1575 for Azo Dye Decolorization and Detoxification

TL;DR: The results of Microtox assay indicate a capability of S. halophilus SSA-1575, in the detoxification of the toxic RB5 pollutant, revealing the effectiveness of halotolerant yeasts in the eco-friendly remediation of hazardous pollutants and dye wastewater processing for the textile industry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Construction of a new lipase- and xylanase-producing oleaginous yeast consortium capable of reactive azo dye degradation and detoxification.

TL;DR: Phytotoxicity assay confirmed that metabolites generated after dye degradation by Y-BC-SH are non-toxic, and this multipurpose oleaginous yeast consortium was developed based on its higher ability to accumulate large amounts of lipids in the form of triacylglycerol.
