Abstract
With an increasing inclination of the world towards fashion and clothing, textile industries are becoming one of the major contributors. This has led to a simultaneous upsurge of various recalcitrant synthetic dyes. The effluents from textile industries are rich in dyes, which when dumped without treatment into rivers, deteriorate the entire ecosystem. Despite various remedial technologies and governmental regulations in this regard, lack of public attention towards the concern is worsening the situation further. The chapter, therefore, focuses on the current status of the water crisis due to water pollution with special reference to textile dye pollution in rivers. The chapter brings a unique amalgamated approach by aiming to bring in front advanced treatment methods using biotechnology that can help in efficient treatment of dye-rich textile effluents along with a deeper understanding of socio-cultural reforms that will ultimately help in the implementation of these solutions.
