Abstract
Textile industry is considered as one of the largest generators of Toxic chemical waste water in India. Dyes released by the textile industries pose a threat to environmental safety. The present study was an attempt for the assessment of different Physico-Chemical parameters such as pH, Temperature, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total solids (TS), Total Dissolved solids (TDS), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Total Alkalinity, Total Hardness, Calcium Hardness, Magnesium Hardness and Chloride. Biological decolorization is an alternative and efficient tool for environmental management. Therefore, the textile dye effluent degradation was herculean task because the textile effluents contain complex of chemicals, highly toxic compounds and heavy metals. The experiment was carried out to degrade the dye effluent by using bacterial isolates from textile dye effluent. From the textile dye effluent there are four different bacteria isolated such as Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus these bacterial strains have capability to degrade the Textile dye effluent as well as to decolourize the dye efficiently in Textile Effluent.
