Synergistic molecular mechanism of degradation in dye wastewater by Rhodopseudomonas palustris intimately coupled carbon nanotube - Silver modified titanium dioxide photocatalytic composite with sodium alginate.

Abstract
The intimately coupled photocatalysis and biodegradation (ICPB), which combined the advantages of high oxidation capacity of photocatalysis and high mineralization rate of biodegradation, has demonstrated excellent removal performance in the degradation of azo dyes with highly toxic, refractory, mutagenic and carcinogenic. In order to explore the metagenomics mechanism of the ICPB system, a novel ICPB was prepared by coupling Rhodopseudomonas palustris (R. Palustris), carbon nanotube - silver modified titanium dioxide photocatalytic composite (CNT-Ag -TiO2, CAT) and sodium alginate (SA) (R. palustris/CAT@SA, R-CAT). Metagenomics sequencing was used to investigate the molecular mechanism of adaptation and degradation of dyes by photosynthetic microorganisms and the adaptive and synergistic interaction between photosynthetic microorganisms and photocatalyst. Experiments on the adaptability and degradability of photosynthetic microorganisms have proved that low concentration azo dyes could be utilized as carbon sources for growth of photosynthetic microorganisms. Metagenomics sequencing revealed that R. palustris was the main degrading bacterium in photosynthetic microorganisms and the functional genes related to carbohydrate metabolism, biological regulation and catalytic activity were abundant. It was found that the addition of photocatalyst significantly up-regulated the functional genes related to the catabolic process, electron transport, oxidoreductase activity and superoxide metabolism of organic matter in the photosynthetic microorganisms. Moreover, many key gene such as alpha-amylase, 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase, aldehyde dehydrogenase enrichment in microbial basal metabolism, such as enoyl-CoA hydratase, malate dehydrogenase, glutathione S-transferase enrichment in degrading azo dyes and electron transport, and many key gene such as undecaprenyl-diphosphatase, carbon storage regulator, DNA ligase enrichment in response to dyes and photocatalysts were discovered. These findings would contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the mechanism of degradation of dye wastewater by ICPB system, a series of genes was produced to adapt to environmental changes, and played synergistic role in terms of intermediate product degradation and electron transfer for degrading azo dyes. The photosynthetic microorganisms might be a promising microorganism for constructing ICPB system.

Abstract
Reactive azo dyes, if discharged in unmonitored manner to natural water bodies, can cause remarkable irreversible damage. The current study is centered on the decolorization and biodegradation of reactive blue (RB4) azo dye in an integrated sequential anaerobic-aerobic batch mode process. The biodegradation of reactive blue (RB4) was accomplished using alternatively both starch and gelatin-immobilized mixed cells. Activated sludge freshly collected from a sewage treatment plant was used as the biocatalyst. Complete decolorization of 10 mg/L RB4 under anaerobic conditions observed within 30 h by using individually mixed bacterial cells immobilized with; (1) starch cross-linked with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA-St beads), and (2) gelatin cross-linked with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA-Ge beads). The results revealed that maximum removal efficiencies of chemical oxygen demand (COD) under aerobic conditions were 89, 88, and 86%, using PVA-St beads, whereby they were 90, 85, 84% using PVA-Ge beads occurred within 70, 90 and 100 h at detected concentrations of 10, 20, and 40 mg/L, respectively. The effect of biocarrier has been proven to be negligible as the results were comparable using both bio-carriers.

Abstract
In this study, the application of immobilized mixed cells for decolourization, biodegradation, and detoxification of reactive yellow dye (RY15) in textile wastewater was investigated via a sequential anaerobic-aerobic process in bench-scale bioreactors and lab-scale bioreactors as well. The mixed cultures were immobilized using three different biocarriers which were sodium alginate (SA), starch (St), and Gelatin (Ge), by the cross-linking with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Results revealed that the immobilized cultures had a potential degrading efficiency in the anaerobic and aerobic environment, targeting the initial structure and the formed compounds, respectively. Complete decolourization (100%) of RY15 was observed with a significant chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal, which enhanced the subsequent aerobic phase. Results demonstrated that COD removals were 92% ± 6.8, 96% ± 3.5, and 100%, using PVA-SA, PVA-St, and PVA-Ge at RY15 initial concentrations of 10 mg/L, respectively. The experimental work was extended to investigate the dye biodegradation in real textile wastewater using mixed cells in immobilized in PVA-SA. The Overloading rate (OLR) and Hydraulic retention time (HRT) of the aerobic bioreactor are 24.5 mg/L h and 41.37 h, respectively. The experimental profiles of RY concentration, COD reduction along with biomass growth, were in good agreement with the model predicted profiles. The effectiveness factors were 0.96 and 0.99 for the anaerobic and aerobic phases, respectively.

Abstract
Direct Black G (DBG) is a highly toxic synthetic azo dye which is difficult to degrade. Biological treatment seems to be a promising option for the treatment of azo dye containing effluent. A thermophilic bacterial strain (Anoxybacillus sp. PDR2) previously isolated from the soil can effectively remove DBG. However, the molecular underpinnings of DBG degradation and the microbial detoxification ability remains unknown. In the present study, the genetic background of PDR2 for the efficient degradation of DBG and its adaptation to azo dye-contaminated environments was revealed by bioinformatics. Moreover, the possible biodegradation pathways were speculated based on the UV-vis spectral analysis, FTIR, and intermediates identified by LC-MS. Additionally, phytotoxicity and the comet experiment studies clearly indicated that PDR2 converts toxic azo dye (DBG) into low toxicity metabolites. The combination of biodegradation pathways and detoxification analysis were utilized to explore the molecular degradation mechanism and bioremediation of azo dye for future applications. These findings will provide a valuable theoretical basis for the practical treatment of azo dye wastewater.

Abstract
In this study, the application of novel biocarrier Orchis mascula plant for immobilization of non-adapted mixed cells biodegrade reactive azo dyes in aqueous solution was investigated via a sequential anaerobic-aerobic process. Three reactive azo dyes including red (RR2), blue (RB4), and yellow (RY15) were individually used as the target pollutants. Results revealed that the immobilized biocatalysts had a potential degrading efficiency, targeting the initial structure and the formed aromatic/aliphatic compounds, respectively. Complete decolorization (100%) of RR2, RB4, and RY15 was observed in the anaerobic phase with significant COD removal which has been enhanced during the subsequent aerobic phase. Results demonstrated that COD removals at 10, 20, and 40 mg/L were 100 ± 0.13%, 95 ± 0.05%, and 90 ± 0.03% for RR2; 90 ± 0.11%, 85 ± 0.9%, and 81 ± 0.18% for RB4; and 100 ± 0.08%, 92 ± 0.16%, and 86 ± 0.06% for RY15, respectively. Immobilized cells exhibited better performance compared with free cells, particularly for high dye concentration up to 100 mg/L.

Abstract
Understanding azo dye degrading enzymes and the encoding of their functional genes is crucial for the elucidation of their molecular mechanisms. In this study, a thermophilic strain capable of degrading azo dye was isolated from the soil near a textile dye manufacturing factory. Based on its morphological, physiological and biochemical properties, as well as 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the strain was identified as Anoxybacillus sp. PDR2. The decolorization ratios of 100-600 mg/L Direct Black G (DBG) by strain PDR2 reached 82.12-98.39% within 48 h of dyes. Genome analysis revealed that strain PDR2 contains a circular chromosome of 3791144 bp with a G + C content of 42.48%. The genetic basis of azo dye degradation by strain PDR2 and its capacity to adapt to harsh environments, were further elucidated through bioinformatics analysis. RNA-Seq and qRT-PCR technology confirmed that NAD(P)H-flavin reductase, 2Fe-2S ferredoxin and NAD(P)-dependent ethanol dehydrogenase genes expressed by strain PDR2, were the key genes involved in DBG degradation. The combination of genome and transcriptome analysis was utilized to explore the key genes of strain PDR2 involved in azo dye biodegradation, with these findings providing a valuable theoretical basis for the practical treatment of azo dye wastewater.

Abstract
Although ultrafiltration membranes have been used for the separation of macromolecules and colloids from solutions, this process has a limited application in the removal of dyes present in coloured discharges of textile industry, as these typically have much lower molecular weight than the molecular cut-off of the membranes (MWCO). In the present work, we have evaluated the behaviour of a polysulfone ultrafiltration membrane in the removal of different dyes from aqueous solutions (Congo red, methyl green and amaranth). Different variables (tangential flow rate, concentration of dye and pH of the feed) were studied to determine their influence on the separation processes (permeate flux and rejection coefficient). The results show that Congo red is easily removed with a GR60PP membrane (MWCO = 25 kDa), whereas methyl green and amaranth show rejection coefficient values of approximately 25.78% and 13.85%, respectively, at neutral pH. Also, an interesting effect is observed for the rejection coefficient for methyl green at different pH values. In addition, several treatments were performed to the membrane so as to modify its surface, trying to improve the values obtained for permeate flux and rejection rate.

Abstract
This study investigated the biodegradation performance and characteristics of Sudan I and Acid Orange 7 (AO7) to improve the biological dye removal efficiency in wastewater and optimize the treatment process. The dyes with different water-solubility and similar molecular structure were biologically treated under aerobic condition in parallel continuous-flow mixed stirred reactors. The biophase analysis using microscopic examination suggested that the removal process of the two azo dyes is different. Removal of Sudan I was through biosorption, since it easily assembled and adsorbed on the surface of zoogloea due to its insolubility, while AO7 was biodegraded incompletely and bioconverted, the AO7 molecule was decomposed to benzene series and inorganic ions, since it could reach the interior area of zoogloea due to the low oxidation-reduction potential conditions and corresponding anaerobic microorganisms. The transformation of NH3-N, SO42− together with the presence of tryptophan-like components confirm that AO7 can be decomposed to non-toxic products in an aerobic bioreactor. This study provides a theoretical basis for the use of biosorption or biodegradation mechanisms for the treatment of different azo dyes in wastewater.

Abstract
The purpose of this research was to compare three combined sequencing batch reactor (SBR) - Fenton processes as post-treatment for the treatment of azo dye Acid Red 18 (AR18). Three combined treatment systems (CTS1, CTS2 and CTS3) were operated to investigate the biomass concentration, COD removal, AR18 dye decolorization and kinetics study. The MLSS concentration of CTS2 reached 7200 mg/L due to the use of external feeding in the SBR reactor of CTS2. The COD concentration remained 273 mg/L and 95 mg/L (initial COD=3270 mg/L) at the end of alternating anaerobic-aerobic SBR with external feeding (An-A MSBR) and CTS2, respectively, resulting in almost 65% of Fenton process efficiency. The dye concentration of 500 mg/L was finally reduced to less than 10mg/L in all systems indicating almost complete AR18 decolorization, which was also confirmed by UV-vis analysis. The dye was removed following two successive parts as parts 1 and 2 with pseudo zero-order and pseudo first-order kinetics, respectively, in all CTSs. Higher intermediate metabolites degradation was obtained using HPLC analysis in CTS2. Accordingly, a combined treatment system can be proposed as an appropriate and environmentally-friendly system for the treatment of the azo dye AR18 in wastewater.

Abstract
Lactobacillus paracase CL1107 capable of removing toxic chromium (Cr(VI)) and Acid Black (ATT) azo dye simultaneously was isolated from deep sea sediment of the North Atlantic. CL1107 exhibited appreciable dye-Cr(VI) bioremoval ability in the pH range from 5 to 7, temperature 25-35 °C and NaCl 0-6% under aerobic conditions. The maximum removal values of Cr(VI) (95.8%) and dye (92.3%) were obtained in the media including only Cr(VI) or dye at initial concentration of 100 mg/L. In the experiments for the simultaneous treatment of both pollutants, the reduction of Cr(VI) and dye was 58.5% and 51.9%, respectively. The azo dye and Cr(VI) reductive activities in strain CL1107 were located in the cell free extract and cell debris, respectively. The mechanisms of azo dye and Cr(VI) reduction were found to be enzyme-mediated. In the treatment of saline tannery wastewater, decolourization of about 76% and 63% Cr(VI) reduction of were achieved. Furthermore, Azo dyes, Cr(VI) and wastewater showed reduced toxicity toward Artemia salina after treatment. These results demonstrate the potential of CL1107 in bioremediation of dye or/and Cr(VI) contamination in salt environments.

Abstract
Bioregeneration of mono-amine modified silica gel (MAMS) adsorbent loaded with Acid Orange 7 (AO7), Acid Yellow 9 (AY9) and Acid Red 14 (AR14), respectively, was investigated under two different operational conditions, namely absence/presence of sucrose/bacto-peptone as the co-substrate and different biomass acclimation concentrations. The results revealed that the AY9- and AR14-loaded MAMS adsorbents could almost be completely bioregenerated but only in the presence of co-substrate whereas the bioregeneration of AO7-loaded MAMS could achieve up to 71% in the absence of the co-substrate. These differences could be related to the structural properties of the investigated azo dyes. In addition, the results showed that the bioregeneration duration of AO7-loaded MAMS could be progressively shortened by using biomass acclimated to increasingly higher AO7 concentration. However, the bioregeneration efficiencies were found to be relatively unchanged under different biomass acclimation concentrations.

Abstract
Several industries are using dyes as coloring agents. The effluents from these industries are increasingly becoming an environmental problem. The removal of dyes from aqueous solution has a great potential in the field of environmental engineering. This paper reviews the classification, characteristics, and problems of dyes in detail. Advantages and disadvantages of different methods used for dye removal are also analyzed. Among these methods, Fenton process-based advanced oxidation processes are an emerging prospect in the field of dye removal. Fenton processes have been classified and represented as "Fenton circle". This paper analyzes the recent studies on Fenton processes. The studies include analyzing different configurations of reactors used for dye removal, its efficiency, and the effects of various operating parameters such as pH, catalyst concentration, H2O2 concentration, initial dye concentration, and temperature of Fenton processes. From the present study, it can be conclude that Fenton processes are very effective and environmentally friendly methods for dye removal.
