Abstract

DECOLORIZATION OF DIFFERENT DYES BY USING WHITE ROT FUNGUS

Adiveppa B. Vantamuri*, O. Kotresh, Laxmi S. Kannur and Preeti V. Bhat

ABSTRACT

The textile industry generates a huge volume of highly polluted effluents. The discharge of such effluents without an appropriate treatment is an issue of serious concern due to their aesthetic and toxic impacts on receiving waters. The traditional technologies for wastewater treatment are inefficient or costly in the treatment of textile effluents. This has impelled the search for new technologies to substitute or complement the existing ones. In this regard, white-rot fungi represent an eco-friendly and less expensive alternative for the treatment of such effluents. Different technologies may be used for decolorization of wastewater containing dyes. Among them, biological processes are the most promising because they seem to be environmentally safe. The aim of this study was to determine the efficiency of decolorization of selected textile dyes. The present work focused on the isolation of white rot fungus, which can efficiently decolorizes the selected textile dyes, i.e, Aniline blue, Brilliant green, Congo red, and Methyl orange. The mushroom was collected from local area Dharwad, Karnataka, India. In this study, the fruiting body of mushroom was used for the isolation of mycelia. It was cultivated on potato dextrose agar (PDA) plate. The isolated fungus was morphologically identified as belong to Pleurotus ostreatus. Further dye decolourization was performed with the selected fungus.
