Abstract

Synthetic dyes cause hazardous health-related problems in humans and affect the biological system underwater. They also have a negative impact on the nutritive value of soils and thereby on crops. Until now there is no effective method to remove the harmful component of dyes from the environment. However, the integrated treatment using bio agents with implication of physical and chemical processes can be effective in the treatment of dye effluents. From the complex azo dyes to their dissociation via thallophytes is a new scope for sustenance. Various studies have supported that laccases have the capability to degrade synthetic dyes that have different chemical structures. Thallophytes have been used to degrade the complex dyes with varying ranges of temperature and pH. Thallophytes have recently been used to treat the textile effluents with effective higher temperature and alkaline pH with decreasing BOD and thus cleaning them from environment in an eco-friendly and cost-efficient manner.
