Abstract

Decolorization of a reactive yellow 17 dye (Molecular formula: C20H20K2N4O12S3) using growing Aspergillus tamarii was studied in a batch bioreactor. The study was performed up to 90 h at optimized pH 5 for maximum growth of A. tamarii. The decolorization and biomass concentration decreased from 58.8 to 6% and from 2.37 to 0.74 g/L, respectively, with increasing initial concentration of dye from 100 to 1000 mg/L. The chemical oxygen demand (COD) after decolorization was found to be decreased from 37.2 to 16% with increasing dye concentration from 100 to 1000 mg/L. Further, desorption study was performed with acidic eluants and the desorbed biomass was reused for decolorization which was compared with that obtained using dead biomass.
