    Abstract:
    Effluents of textile industries caused serious environmental problem throughout the world. In this study, a total of 23 bacterial strains from five bacterial species were isolated from the dye effluent. Of these strains, a unique and novel Enterobacter aerogenes ES014 was utilized for dye decolourization and toxicity analysis. The selected strain could effectively decolourize three selected azo dyes. It showed the capability for decolourizing acid orange (82.3 ± 3.6%), methyl orange (78.2 ± 3.3%), and congo red (81.5 ± 3.2%). The selected bacterial strain significantly decolourized 100 mg/L acid orange at 35 °C, pH 7.5 with 6% sodium chloride concentration. Most of the tested nitrogen and carbon sources effectively enhanced decolourization process. It showed the ability to decolourize acid orange in the culture medium containing 1.5% glucose (100 ± 2.8%) and 0.8% beef extract (100 ± 3.1%). A laboratory-scale batch bioreactor was used to decolourize azo dye at optimized culture conditions. The decolourizing ability improved with 100 mL/h hydraulic retention time. The treated wastewater quality was improved due to sharp depletion of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), pH, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), alkalinity and sulphate concentration. The selected bacteria has the potential to produce dye degrading laccase. Laccase was detected during fermentation process in batch bioreactor as a key enzyme for decolourization produced by E. aerogenes ES014. Phytotoxicity and acute toxicity analysis were performed using Arachis hypogaea (pea nut) seed and first instar larvae of Artemia parthenogenetica (brine shrimp). The seed germination rate of treated wastewater was improved (94.3 ± 1.8%) and enhanced survival rate (91.7 ± 2.9%) in the first instar Artemia larvae treated with wastewater after 24 h. Overall, E. aerogenes ES014, might be a promising bacterial strain for the treatment of textile effluents with high azo dye concentrations.
