Abstract
Textile effluents containing toxic dyes must be treated effectively before discharge to prevent adverse environmental impacts. Traditional physical and chemical treatment methods are costly and generate secondary pollutants. In contrast, biological treatment is a more suitable, clean, versatile, eco-friendly, and cost-effective technique for treating textile effluent. It is well established that indigenous microbial populations present in effluents can effectively degrade toxic dyes. In this regard, Achromobacter xylosoxidans DDB6 was isolated from the effluent sample to decolorize crystal violet (CV), Coomassie brilliant blue (CBB), and alizarin red (AR) by 67.20%, 28.58%, and 20.41%, respectively. The growth parameters of A. xylosoxidans DDB6 in media supplemented with 100 ppm of various dyes were determined using the modified Gompertz growth model. The immobilized cells in calcium alginate beads showed apparent decolorization rate constant of 0.27, 0.18, and 0.13 h-1 for CV, CBB, and AR, respectively. The immobilized cells in a packed bed reactor with an optimum flow rate of 0.5 mL/min were used to treat 100 ppm of CV with a percentage decolorization of 79.47% after three cycles. Based on the findings, A. xylosoxidans DDB6 could be effectively used for decolorization of various dyes.

Abstract
Some dyes currently used by the textile, pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, and photographic industries have been shown to be toxic and/or mutagenic to aquatic life. Most of these dyes resist degradation processes available for treating wastewater, and these processes might generate even more toxic by-products. Despite the large number of available dyes and the large quantity of dyes released into the environment, studies on their toxicity are still scarce. We evaluated and compared the effects in the animal model Danio rerio (zebrafish) of environmentally relevant concentrations of Disperse Red 60 (DR 60), 73 (DR 73), and 78 (DR 78) using the fish embryo acute toxicity (FET) test, morphometric analysis, immunofluorescence imaging, and behavioral parameters. DR 60 caused ocular modifications, while the DR 73 caused non-inflation of the swim bladder (NISB), pericardial edema (PE), scoliosis (S) and abnormal yolk sac (AYS) from at 0.125 mg/L. In behavioral tests, all the dyes induced changes in velocity and time spent swimming of exposed larvae. However, these alterations in behavior seem to be caused by different factors dependent on the dye and its concentration. Nevertheless, behavior seems to add valuable information concerning the hazards analysis of dyes, since it reveals to be the most sensitive group of parameters tested in the current study. In conclusion, of the behavioral and developmental alterations caused by these dyes should be interpreted as an alert for greater attention when registering new dyes and releasing them into the environment. In the particular case of DR 60 the possibility that directly affects the eye of larvae is of great environmental concern, but also from the human health perspective.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA), an environmental endocrine disruptor (EDC), has been implicated in impairing intestinal and male reproductive dysfunction. The efficacy of gut microbiota modulation for BPA-exposed testicular dysfunction has yet to be verified through research. Therefore, this study explored the potential of mixed probiotics in restoring spermatogenesis damage through the gut-testis axis under BPA exposure. We selected two probiotics strains (Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Lactobacillus plantarum) with BPA removal properties in vitro and the BPA-exposed male mice model was established. The probiotics mixture effectively reduced BPA residue in the gut, serum, and testis in mice. Through 16 S rDNA-seq and metabolomics sequencing, we uncovered that vitamin D metabolism and bile acid levels in the gut was abolished under BPA exposure. This perturbation was linked to an increased abundance of Faecalibaculum and decreased abundance of Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group and Ligilactobacillus. The probiotics mixture restored this balance, enhancing intestinal barrier function and reducing oxidative stress. This improvement was accompanied by a restored balance of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). Remarkably, the probiotics ameliorated testicular dysfunction by repairing structures of seminiferous tubules and reversing arrested spermiogenesis. Further, the probiotics mixture enhanced testosterone-driven increases in spermatogonial stem cells and all stages of sperm cells. Testicular transcriptome profiling linked these improvements to fatty acid degradation and peroxisome pathways. These findings suggest a significant interplay between spermatogenesis and gut microbiota, demonstrating that probiotic intake could be a viable strategy for combating male subfertility issues caused by BPA exposure.

Abstract
Anthraquinone (anthracene-9,10-dione) is a multifaceted chemical used in the paper industry, in the production of synthetic dyes, in crop protection against birds and is released from fossil fuels. Additionally, the anthraquinone scaffold, when substituted with sugars and hydroxyl groups is found in plants as metabolites. Because of these multiple applications, it is produced on a large scale worldwide. However, its toxicological aspects have gained interest, due to the low limits in the foods defined by legislation. Worrying levels of anthracene-9,10-dione have been detected in wastewater, atmospheric air, soil, food packaging and more recently, in actual foodstuffs. Recent investigations aiming to identify the anthracene-9,10-dione contamination sources in teas highlighted the packaging, leaves processing, anthracene metabolism, reactions between tea constituents and deposition from the environment. In this context, this review seeks to highlight the uses, sources, biological effects, analytical and regulatory aspects of anthracene-9,10-dione. Graphical Abstract

Abstract
Herein, Fe3O4 core-TiO2/mesoSiO2 and Fe3O4 core-mesoSiO2/TiO2 double shell nanoparticles were prepared by first (R1) and second (R2) routes and applied for the removal of methylene blue. The reported adsorption capacities for R1-0.2, R1-0.4 and R2 samples were 128, 118 and 133 mg.g-1, respectively, which were obtained after 80 min as equilibrium contact time, and pH of 6 using a methylene blue concentration of 200 ppm. The adsorption of methylene blue using the prepared Fe3O4 core-meso SiO2/TiO2 double shell was analyzed by kinetic and isotherms models. In addition, thermodynamic investigations were applied to assess the spontaneous nature of the process. The obtained results confirmed that the pseudo-second order model is well fitted with the adsorption data and the Freundlich-isotherm assumption suggested a multilayer adsorption mechanism. In addition, results of the thermodynamic investigation indicated that ΔG° was in the range of -2.3 to -6.8 kJ/mol for R1-0.2, -2.8 to -6.3 kJ/mol for R1-0.4 and -2.0 to -5.2 kJ/mol for R2. In addition, the ΔH° and ΔS° values were found in the range of 26.4 to 36.19 kJ.mol-1 and 94.9 to 126.3 Jmol-1 K-1, respectively. These results confirm that the surfaces of Fe3O4 core-mesoSiO2/TiO2 and Fe3O4 core-TiO2/mesoSiO2 double shell exhibit a spontaneous tendency to adsorb methylene blue from the aqueous solutions. The achieved performance of Fe3O4 core-meso SiO2/TiO2 and Fe3O4 core-TiO2/meso SiO2 double shell as adsorbent for methylene blue removal will encourage future research investigations on the removal of a broad range of contaminants from wastewater.

Abstract
The current physicochemical methods for decolorizing toxic synthetic dyes are not sustainable to halt the environmental damage as they are expensive and often produce concentrated sludge, which may lead to secondary disposal problems. Biocatalysis (microbes and/or their enzymes) is a cost-effective, versatile, energy-saving and clean alternative. The most common enzymes involved in dye degradation are laccases, azoreductases and peroxidases. Toxic dyes could be converted into less harmful byproducts through the combined action of many enzymes or the utilization of whole cells. The action of whole cells to treat dye effluents is either by biosorption or degradation (aerobic or anaerobic). Using immobilized cells or enzymes will offer advantages such as superior stability, persistence against harsh environmental conditions, reusability and longer half-lives. This review envisages the recent strategies of immobilization and bioreactor considerations with the immobilized system as the effective treatment of textile dye effluents. Packed bed reactors are the most popular heterogeneous biocatalytic reactors for dye decolorization due to their efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) are potential pollutants emitted from the petrochemical industry, whereas their occurrence and sources in petrochemical regions are still poorly known. The present study revealed the spatial variations, compositional profiles, sources and contributions, and health risks of PM-bound PACs in two large-scale petrochemical bases (GDPB and HNPB) in South China. The concentrations of parent polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were 7.14 ± 3.16 ng/m3 for ∑18PAHs and 0.608 ± 0.294 ng/m3 for the PAHs with molecular weight of 302 amu (MW302 PAHs) in the GDPB base and 2.55 ± 1.26 ng/m3 and 0.189 ± 0.088 ng/m3 in the HNPB base. Oxygenated PAHs (OPAHs) showed comparable concentrations to the parent PAHs in both the bases and nitrated PAHs (NPAHs) had the lowest mean levels (260 pg/m3 and 59.4 pg/m3 in the two regions). Coronene, 2,8-dinitrodibenzothiophene, and dibenzo[a,e]fluoranthene showed remarkably higher contributions to the PAC and can be PAC markers of the petrochemical industry source. Five sources of PACs were identified respectively in both petrochemical bases by the positive matrix factorization (PMF) model. The vehicle (and ship) traffic exhaust was the primary source of PACs (contributed 33% to the ∑PACs), and the sources related to the coking of coal and heavy petroleum and refinery exhaust were identified in both bases, with contributions of 10-20%. PACs in GDPB also contributed from secondary atmospheric reactions (17.3%) and the usage of sulfur-containing fuels (20.9%), while the aromatics industry made a significant contribution (20.1%) to the PACs in the HNPB region. The cumulative incremental lifetime cancer risks (ILCRs) induced by inhalation of PM-bound PACs in both petrochemical bases were low (10-8-10-6). For the sources related to the petrochemical industry, coking activities and the aromatic industry were the significant contributors to the ∑ILCRs in GDPB and HNPB, respectively. This research has implications for further source-targeted control and health risk reduction of PACs in petrochemical regions.

Abstract
Organic dyes are widely used in the textile, biological, medical and other fields. However, a serious environmental problem has appeared because of the presence of organic dyes in industrial aqueous effluents. Thus, the efficient treatment of organic dyes in industrial wastewaters is currently in real demand. The current study investigated the oxidative degradation of the organic dye gentian violet by meso-tetra(carboxyphenyl) porphyriniron(III), [FeIII(TCPP)] as a cytochrome P450 model and iodosylbenzene (PhIO) as an oxidant at room temperature. The degradation reaction was monitored by UV-vis absorption spectroscopy via the observation of UV-vis spectral changes of the gentian violet. The results showed that the efficiency of catalyzed degradation reached more than 90% in 1 h, indicating the remarkable oxidative degradation capacity of the [FeIII(TCPP)]/PhIO system, which provided an efficient approach for the treatment of dyeing wastewater.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The active component content is an important factor affecting quality of traditional Chinese medicines. The fume-drying process can effectively improve the content of active components in rhubarb, but the accumulation dynamics and molecular mechanisms are not known. In this study, variations in the active components of rhubarb during the drying process were determined, and the most intense changes in the active components were preferred for transcriptome inquiry. RESULTS The results showed that the accumulation of active ingredients could be significantly promoted in the early stage of fume-drying and air-drying. In particular, the active ingredients increased by 61.57% (from 44.58 to 72.02 mg g-1 ) on the fourth day of fume-drying. A total of 4191 DEGs (differentially expressed genes) were identified by transcriptome analysis when the active components changed significantly. Transcriptome data of different dried rhubarb samples revealed, that the fume-drying process could significantly improve the expression of genes relevant to respiration, phenolic acid, and anthraquinone synthesis pathways in rhubarb, which was more conducive to the synthesis and accumulation of the active components. CONCLUSION Fume-drying stimulated respiration and secondary metabolite synthesis in rhubarb cells by exerting strong external stress on freshly harvested rhubarb. This study revealed the variations and molecular mechanism of active component accumulation in the rhubarb drying process and might serve as a guide for the development of alternative methods for rhubarb fumigation and drying process. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Water pollution due to textile dyes is a serious threat to every life form. Bacteria can degrade and detoxify toxic dyes present in textile effluents and wastewater. The present study aimed to evaluate the degradation potential of eleven bacterial strains for azo dye methyl red. The optimum degradation efficiency was obtained using P. aeruginosa. It was found from initial screening results that P. aeruginosa is the most potent strain with 81.49% degradation activity and hence it was subsequently used in other degradation experiments. To optimize the degradation conditions, a number of experiments were conducted where only one variable was varied at a time and where maximum degradation was observed at 20 ppm dye concentration, 1666.67 mg/L glucose concentration, 666.66 mg/L sodium chloride concentration, pH 9, temperature 40 °C, 1000 mg/L urea concentration, 3 days incubation period, and 66.66 mg/L hydroquinone (redox mediator). The interactive effect of pH, incubation time, temperature, and dye concentration in a second-order quadratic optimization of process conditions was found to further enhance the biodegradation efficiency of P. aeruginosa by 88.37%. The metabolites of the aliquot mixture of the optimized conditions were analyzed using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), GC-MS, proton, and carbon 13 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopic techniques. FTIR results confirmed the reduction of the azo bond of methyl red. The Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) results revealed that the degraded dye contains benzoic acid and o-xylene as the predominant constituents. Even benzoic acid was isolated from the silica gel column and identified by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. These results indicated that P. aeruginosa can be utilized as an efficient strain for the detoxification and remediation of industrial wastewater containing methyl red and other azo dyes.

Abstract
The textile industry uses large amounts of dyes like reactive, azo, anthraquinone, and triphenylmethane to colour textiles. Dyes that are not used up during the colouration process usually end up in water bodies as waste leading to the pollution of the water bodies. This makes the industry to be one of the major contributors to water pollution in the world. Bacterial agents isolated from various sources like dye contaminated soil and textile wastewater have shown to have the ability to effectively decolourise and degrade these dye pollutants leading to improved water quality. This review discusses bacterial isolates that have been used successfully to degrade and decolourise textile dyes, their mode of dye removal as well as the factors that affect their dye degradation ability. It further looks at the latest wastewater treatment technologies that incorporate bacterial microorganisms to treat dye wastewater. Bacterial isolates offer environmentally friendly solution to dye degradation. Pure and mixed bacterial cultures can remove textile dyes in optimised conditions. Dyes are removed through biosorption or biodegradation mechanisms. Latest technologies provide more effective dye removal options.

Abstract
Increased industrialization demand using synthetic dyes in the newspaper, cosmetics, textiles, food, and leather industries. As a consequence, harmful chemicals from dye industries are released into water reservoirs with numerous structural components of synthetic dyes, which are hazardous to the ecosystem, plants and humans. The discharge of synthetic dye into various aquatic environments has a detrimental effect on the balance and integrity of ecological systems. Moreover, numerous inorganic dyes exhibit tolerance to degradation and repair by natural and conventional processes. So, the present condition requires the development of efficient and effective waste management systems that do not exacerbate environmental stress or endanger other living forms. Numerous biological systems, including microbes and plants, have been studied for their ability to metabolize dyestuffs. To minimize environmental impact, bioremediation uses endophytic bacteria, which are plant beneficial bacteria that dwell within plants and may improve plant development in both normal and stressful environments. Moreover, Phytoremediation is suitable for treating dye contaminants produced from a wide range of sources. This review article proves a comprehensive evaluation of the most frequently utilized plant and microbes as dye removal technologies from dye-containing industrial effluents. Furthermore, this study examines current existing technologies and proposes a more efficient, cost-effective method for dye removal and decolorization on a big scale. This study also aims to focus on advanced degradation techniques combined with biological approaches, well regarded as extremely effective treatments for recalcitrant wastewater, with the greatest industrial potential.

Abstract
The disposal process of iron-containing sludge often leads to secondary pollution. Pyrolysis of sludge appears to be less polluting than conventional methods. Herein, the heterogeneous photo-Fenton catalysts were prepared using sludge generated in the dyeing wastewater through a simple one-step pyrolysis route. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, XPS, EDS, BET, and SEM. The batch experiments for methyl orange (MO) degradation were performed to evaluate the efficiency and stability of the catalysts. Among the catalysts prepared, FeCN-300 exhibited the best degradation efficiency with 92% removal of the pollutant and good stability, with approximately 90% removal of the pollutant after five cycles. The •OH was identified as the dominant reactive species. This work provides a reasonable resource utilization of iron-containing sludge.

Abstract
Industrial contaminants such as dyes and intermediates are released into water bodies, making the water unfit for human use. At the same time large amounts of food wastes accumulate near the work places, residential complexes etc. polluting the air due to putrefaction. The need of the hour lies in finding innovative solutions for dye removal from wastewater streams. In this context, the article emphasizes adoption or conversion of food waste materials, an ecological nuisance, as adsorbents for the removal of dyes from wastewaters. Adsorption, being a well-established technique, the review critically examines the specific potential of food waste constituents as dye adsorbents. The efficacy of food waste-based adsorbents is examined, besides addressing the possible adsorption mechanisms and the factors affecting phenomenon such as pH, temperature, contact time, adsorbent dosage, particle size, and ionic strength. Integration of information and communication technology approaches with adsorption isotherms and kinetic models are emphasized to bring out their role in improving overall modeling performance. Additionally, the reusability of adsorbents has been highlighted for effective substrate utilization. The review makes an attempt to stress the valorization of food waste materials to remove dyes from contaminated waters thereby ensuring long-term sustainability.

Abstract
Synthetic dyes pose a large threat to the environment and consequently to human health. Various dyes are used in textile, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries, and are released into the environment without any treatment, thus adversely affecting both the environment and neighboring human populations. Several existing physical and chemical methods for dye degradation are effective but have many drawbacks. Biological methods over the years have gained importance in the decolorization and degradation of dye and have also overcome the disadvantages of physiochemical methods. Furthermore, biological methods are eco-friendly and lead to complete decolorization. The mechanism of decolorization and degradation by several bacterial enzymes are discussed in detail. For the identification of ecologically sustainable strains and their application at the field level, we have focused on bioaugmentation aspects. Furthermore, in silico studies such as molecular docking of bacterial enzymes with dyes can give a new insight into biological studies and provide an easy way to understand the interaction at the molecular level. This review mainly focuses on an integrative approach and its importance for the effective treatment and decolorization of dyes.

Abstract
It is of great significance to study the treatment of organic dye pollution. In this work, a method of electrochemical treatment for reactive blue 19 dye (RB19) wastewater system was established, and it was applied to the actual dye wastewater treatment. The effects of applied voltage, electrolyte concentration, electrode spacing, and initial concentration on the removal effect of RB19 have been studied in detail. The results show that the removal rate of RB19 can reach 82.6% and the chemical oxygen demand (CODcr) removal rate is 54.3% under optimal conditions. The removal of RB19 in the system is mainly the oxidation of hydroxyl free radicals. The possible degradation pathway is inferred by ion chromatography: hydroxyl free radicals attack the chromophoric group of RB19 to make it fall off, and then decompose it into ring-opening. The product is finally oxidized to CO2 and water. The kinetic fitting is in accordance with the zero-order reaction kinetics. At the same time, using the established electrochemical system to treat the actual dye wastewater has also achieved good results. After 3 hours of treatment, the CODcr removal rate of the raw water is 44.8%, and the CODcr removal of the effluent can reach 89.5%. The degradation process conforms to the zero-order reaction kinetics. The result is consistent with the electrochemical treatment of RB19.

Abstract
A sustainable technology to eliminate the persistent reactive dyes from the textile effluents discharged indiscriminately in the environment is highly desirous given the explosive growth of textile industries. The present study investigated the potential of two different bacterial strains, Bacillus cereus SKB12 and Enterobacter hormaechei SKB16 isolated from the dye house effluent sludge in the biotransformation of Reactive Red 198 (RR 198). Process variables such as temperature, pH, shaking conditions and contact time were optimized for the successful decolourization of RR 198. Maximum decolourization of 80% and 85% of RR 198 was achieved at pH 6 and 7, and 40 °C in microaerophilic conditions on treatment with B. cereus and E. hormaechei, respectively. High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analyses conducted further affirmed that the decolourization of RR 198 was rather due to biodegradation than biosorption through shift in wavenumbers, retention time variations and the appearance of lesser molecular weight peaks. Degradative pathway for RR 198 predicted based on the enzyme assay data and dye degraded metabolite peaks acquired through GC-MS analysis highlighted the significance of azoreductase and laccase in the degradation of RR 198 into smaller non-toxic compounds. In addition, toxicity assessment through zootoxicological and phytotoxicological experiments using brine shrimp and Vigna radiata validated the detoxified status of the metabolites thus proving the promising potentials of the bacterial strains in the remediation of azo dyes.

Abstract
Background Alizarin red (AR) is a typical anthraquinone dye, and the resulting wastewater is toxic and difficult to remove. A study showed that the white rot fungus Trametes gibbosa (T. gibbosa) can degrade dye wastewater by decolorization and has its own enzyme-producing traits. Methods In this study, transcriptome sequencing was performed after alizarin red treatment for 0, 3, 7, 10, and 14 h. The key pathways and key enzymes involved in alizarin red degradation were found to be through the analysis of KEGG and GO. The Glutathione S-transferase (GST), manganese peroxidase (MnP) and laccase activities of T. gibbosa treated with alizarin red for 0–14 h were detected. LC–MS and GC–MS analyses of alizarin red decomposition products after 7 h and 14 h were performed. Results The glutathione metabolic pathway ko00480, and the key enzymes GST, MnP, laccase and CYP450 were selected. Most of the genes encoding these enzymes were upregulated under alizarin red conditions. The GST activity increased 1.8 times from 117.55 U/mg prot at 0 h to 217.03 U/mg prot at 14 h. The MnP activity increased 2.9 times from 6.45 to 18.55 U/L. The laccase activity increased 3.7 times from 7.22 to 27.28 U/L. Analysis of the alizarin red decolourization rate showed that the decolourization rate at 14 h reached 20.21%. The main degradation intermediates were found to be 1,4-butene diacid, phthalic acid, 1,1-diphenylethylene, 9,10-dihydroanthracene, 1,2-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, bisphenol, benzophenol-5,2-butene, acrylaldehyde, and 1-butylene, and the degradation process of AR was inferred. Overall, 1,4-butene diacid is the most important intermediate product produced by AR degradation. Conclusions The glutathione metabolic pathway was the key pathway for AR degradation. GST, MnP, laccase and CYP450 were the key enzymes for AR degradation. 1,4-butene diacid is the most important intermediate product. This study explored the process of AR biodegradation at the molecular and biochemical levels and provided a theoretical basis for its application in practical production.

Abstract
The green treatment of dye wastewater has always been a research hotspot in the environmental field. The photocatalytic technology is considered to be a simple and effective strategy to remove dyes in wastewater. A new type of NiWO4/WO3 Z-scheme heterojunction microspheres were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method and impregnation-calcination process. The crystal structure, microscopic morphology, optical and electrochemical properties of the samples were systematically characterized. The photocatalytic activity of methylene blue (MB) was studied by visible light irradiation. The results show that the direct Z-scheme heterojunction formed by NiWO4/WO3 effectively reduces the transfer resistance of photogenerated carriers and improves the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers. The degradation rates of NiWO4/WO3-4 Z-scheme heterojunction microspheres to MB dye are 1.8 and 3.2 times higher than that of pure WO3·2H2O and WO3 microspheres, respectively. Combined with the Mott-Schottky curve and the active species capture experiments, a possible Z-scheme photogenerated carrier transfer mechanism is proposed. This study provides a method for the development and design of Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts in the field of wastewater purification.

Abstract
In a global context where the development of more environmentally conscious technologies is an urgent need, the demand for enzymes for industrial processes is on the rise. Compared to conventional chemical catalysts, the implementation of biocatalysis presents important benefits including higher selectivity, increased sustainability, reduction in operating costs and low toxicity, which translate into cleaner production processes, lower environmental impact as well as increasing the safety of the operating staff. Most of the currently available commercial enzymes are of mesophilic origin, displaying optimal activity in narrow ranges of conditions, which limits their actual application under industrial settings. For this reason, enzymes from extremophilic microorganisms stand out for their specific characteristics, showing higher stability, activity and robustness than their mesophilic counterparts. Their unique structural adaptations allow them to resist denaturation at high temperatures and salinity, remain active at low temperatures, function at extremely acidic or alkaline pHs and high pressure, and participate in reactions in organic solvents and unconventional media. Because of the increased interest to replace chemical catalysts, the global enzymes market is continuously growing, with hydrolases being the most prominent type of enzymes, holding approximately two-third share, followed by oxidoreductases. The latter enzymes catalyze electron transfer reactions and are one of the most abundant classes of enzymes within cells. They hold a significant industrial potential, especially those from extremophiles, as their applications are multifold. In this article we aim to review the properties and potential applications of five different types of extremophilic oxidoreductases: laccases, hydrogenases, glutamate dehydrogenases (GDHs), catalases and superoxide dismutases (SODs). This selection is based on the extensive experience of our research group working with these particular enzymes, from the discovery up to the development of commercial products available for the research market.

Abstract
Microbial biodiversity is represented by a variety of genomic landscapes adapted to dissimilar environments on Earth. These genomic landscapes contain functional signatures connected with the community phenotypes. Here, we assess the genomic microbial diversity landscape at a high-resolution level of a polluted river-associated microbiome (Morelos, México), cultured in a medium enriched with anthraquinone Deep Blue 35 dye. We explore the resultant textile dye microbiome to infer links between predicted biodegradative functions, and metagenomic and metabolic potential, especially using the information obtained from individual reconstructed genomes. By using Hi-C proximity-ligation deconvolution method, we deconvoluted 97 genome composites (80% potentially novel species). The main taxonomic determinants were Methanobacterium, Clostridium, and Cupriavidus genera constituting 50, 22, and 11% of the total community profile. Also, we observed a rare biosphere of novel taxa without clear taxonomic standing. Removal of 50% chemical oxygen demand with 23% decolorization was observed after 30 days of dye enrichment. Genes related to catalase-peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, and laccase enzymes were predicted as associated with textile dye biodegradation phenotype under our study conditions, highlighting the potential of metagenome-wide analysis to predict biodegradative determinants. This study prompts high-resolution screening of individual genomes within textile dye river sediment microbiomes or complex communities under environmental pressures.

Abstract
Bisphenol-A (BPA) is a constituent of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins, widely applied on food packaging materials. As BPA exposure results in health hazards, its efficient removal is of crucial importance. In our study five potentially probiotic microorganisms, namely Lactococcus lactis, Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus plantarum, Enterococcus faecalis, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, were tested for their toxicity tolerance to BPA and their BPA removal ability. Although BPA toxicity, evident on all microorganisms, presented a correlation to both BPA addition time and its concentration, all strains exhibited BPA-removal ability with increased removal rate between 0 and 24 h of incubation. BPA degradation resulted in the formation of two dimer products in cells while the compounds Hydroquinone (HQ), 4-Hydroxyacetophenone (HAP), 4-Hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA) and 4-Isopropenylphenol (PP) were identified in the culture medium. In the proposed BPA degradation pathways BPA adducts formation appears as a common pattern, while BPA decomposition as well as the formation, and the levels of its end products present differences among microorganisms. The BPA degradation ability of the tested beneficial microorganisms demonstrates their potential application in the bioremediation of BPA contaminated foods and feeds and provides a means to suppress the adverse effects of BPA on human and animal health.

Abstract
The history of colour is fascinating from a social and artistic viewpoint because it shows the way; use; and importance acquired. The use of colours date back to the Stone Age (the first news of cave paintings); colour has contributed to the social and symbolic development of civilizations. Colour has been associated with hierarchy; power and leadership in some of them. The advent of synthetic dyes has revolutionized the colour industry; and due to their low cost; their use has spread to different industrial sectors. Although the percentage of coloured wastewater discharged by the textile; food; pharmaceutical; cosmetic; and paper industries; among other productive areas; are unknown; the toxic effect and ecological implications of this discharged into water bodies are harmful. This review briefly shows the social and artistic history surrounding the discovery and use of natural and synthetic dyes. We summarise the environmental impact caused by the discharge of untreated or poorly treated coloured wastewater to water bodies; which has led to physical; chemical and biological treatments to reduce the colour units so as important physicochemical parameters. We also focus on laccase utility (EC 1.10.3.2), for discolouration enzymatic treatment of coloured wastewater, before its discharge into water bodies. Laccases (p-diphenol: oxidoreductase dioxide) are multicopper oxidoreductase enzymes widely distributed in plants, insects, bacteria, and fungi. Fungal laccases have employed for wastewater colour removal due to their high redox potential. This review includes an analysis of the stability of laccases, the factors that influence production at high scales to achieve discolouration of high volumes of contaminated wastewater, the biotechnological impact of laccases, and the degradation routes that some dyes may follow when using the laccase for colour removal.

Abstract
The current study investigates the decolorization of Indanthrene Blue RS dye and the optimization of process parameters needed for effective decolorization by the bacterial consortium. The pure culture of strain TS8, PMS, and NCH has been isolated from the textile wastewater sample collected from local textile processing units outlet and dye contaminated soil from Odisha, India. A bacterial consortium-BP of Bacillus flexus TS8 (BF), Proteus mirabilis PMS (PM), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa NCH (PA) were developed. The physicochemical parameters were optimized to attain maximum decolorization efficacy. Degradation of Indanthrene Blue RS and the formation of metabolites were confirmed through UV-vis spectroscopy, FT-IR, and GC-MS analysis. The developed consortium-BP showed an enhanced decolorization of Indanthrene Blue RS dye with an Average decolorization rate of 11,088 µg h-1 within 9 h compared to the individual strains under aerobic conditions. The supplementation of agricultural residual wastes showed increased decolorization efficiency of consortium-BP. Higher reduction in TOC and COD removal (≥ 80%) determined the mineralization of Indanthrene Blue RS by consortium-BP. Significant induction of various oxidoreductive enzymes in consortium-BP compared to that of Individual strains indicates their involvement in the overall decolorization and degradation process, with the higher protein concentration in the intracellular enzymes. Studies on the phytotoxicity effect revealed the non-toxic nature of the degraded products formed on mineralization of Indanthrene Blue RS by consortium-BP. This study represents a new approach for enhanced biodegradation using consortium-BP in treating textile wastewaters containing anthraquinone dyes.

Abstract
In this study, a white rot fungus Antrodia was newly isolated and named P5. Then its dye biodegradation ability was investigated. Our results showed that P5 could effectively degrade 1,000 mg/L Reactive Blue 4 (RB4) in 24 h with 95% decolorization under shaking conditions. It could tolerate a high dye concentration of 2,500 mg/L as well as 10% salt concentration and a wide range of pH values (4-9). Herbal extraction residues (HER) were screened as additional medium elements for P5 biodegradation. Following the addition of Fructus Gardeniae (FG) extraction residue, the biodegradation performance of P5 was significantly enhanced, achieving 92% decolorization in 12 h. Transcriptome analysis showed that the expression of multiple peroxidase genes was simultaneously increased: Lignin Peroxidase, Manganese Peroxidase, Laccase, and Dye Decolorization Peroxidase. The maximum increase in Lignin Peroxidase reached 10.22-fold in the presence of FG. The results of UV scanning and LC-HRMS showed that with the synergistic effect of FG, P5 could remarkably accelerate the biodegradation process of RB4 intermediates. Moreover, the fungal treatment with FG also promoted the abatement of RB4 toxicity. In sum, white rot fungus and herbal extraction residue were combined and used in the treatment of anthraquinone dye. This could be applied in practical contexts to realize an efficient and eco-friendly strategy for industrial dye wastewater treatment.

Abstract
In the last 3 years alone, over 10,000 publications have appeared on the topic of dye removal, including over 300 reviews. Thus, the topic is very relevant, although there are few articles on the practical applications on an industrial scale of the results obtained in research laboratories. Therefore, in this review, we focus on advanced oxidation methods integrated with biological methods, widely recognized as highly efficient treatments for recalcitrant wastewater, that have the best chance of industrial application. It is extremely important to know all the phenomena and mechanisms that occur during the process of removing dyestuffs and the products of their degradation from wastewater to prevent their penetration into drinking water sources. Therefore, particular attention is paid to understanding the mechanisms of both chemical and biological degradation of dyes, and the kinetics of these processes, which are important from a design point of view, as well as the performance and implementation of these operations on a larger scale.

Abstract
The long-term stability of aerobic granules is critical for decolourization of different dyes in textile wastewater. Here, we investigated dye decolourization and the stability of acetate-cultivated granules after exposure to dyes. Results show that granules can maintain excellent structure stability with the presence of azo and triphenylmethane dyes during a 200-day operation period, achieving biomass concentrations as high as 8-12 g L-1 and 90% and 100% decolourization efficiency, respectively. Aerobic granules, however, partially disintegrated after exposure to anthraquinone, resulting in dye decolourization efficiency ranging from 50 to 80% and a biomass concentration as low as around 0.5 g L-1 due to biomass wash-out. The study indicates that long-term granule stability is much dependent on the dye classes. The enrichment of specific species in granules for dye decolourization has not been affected by the granule structure. The specific dye decolourization rate and dye to microorganism ratio for anthraquinone were 5-6.5 and 13.5-16.4 times, respectively, higher than those for azo and triphenylmethane dyes, but the total reactor performance for anthraquinone decolourization is much poorer than azo and triphenylmethane dyes due to low biomass retention in the reactor. The results suggest the importance of stability of aerobic granules for biomass retention to achieve better treatment performance of dye-containing wastewater. For the first time, the long-term stability and decolourization performance of aerobic granules for treating anthraquinone and triphenylmethane dyes are reported here and compared with azo dye, which can be used to guide the treatment of real textile wastewater containing azo, anthraquinone and triphenylmethane dyes by aerobic granules.

Abstract
The release of synthetic dye into the environment causing abnormal growth of phytoplankton may lead to a decline in the photosynthetic performance of aquatic ecosystem. Scientific knowledge of Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) decolorization is essential for designing the engineered bioremediation systems of employing fungal mycelium. The biodegradation of RBBR dye mediated by an appropriate fungus was analyzed using the modified mass transfer factor models to get better understanding on the decolorization kinetics and mechanisms of external and internal mass transfer. The results showed that the limited capacities of the kinetic and isotherm models are still not able to comprehensively explain many important phenomena of RBBR decolorization mediated by the T. citrinoviride, T. koningiopsis and Pestalotiopsis sp. strains. The rate-limiting step of RBBR decolorization depends on the EMT resistance and the vegetative growth rates of T. citrinoviride, T. koningiopsis and Pestalotiopsis sp. strains can be described by second-order polynomial equation. The analysis of decolorization performance may provide a new insight on the role of fungus in the degradation of RBBR dye.

Abstract
Laccases are enzymes able to catalyze the oxidation of a wide array of phenolic and non-phenolic compounds using oxygen as co-substrate and releasing water as by-product. They are well known to have wide substrate specificity and in recent years, have gained great biotechnological importance. To date, most well studied laccases are from fungal and mesophilic origin, however, enzymes from extremophiles possess an even greater potential to withstand the extreme conditions present in many industrial processes. This research work presents the heterologous production and characterization of a novel laccase from a thermoalkaliphilic bacterium isolated from a hot spring in a geothermal site. This recombinant enzyme exhibits remarkably high specific activity (>450,000 U/mg) at 70 °C, pH 6.0, using syringaldazine substrate, it is active in a wide range of temperature (20-90 °C) and maintains over 60% of its activity after 2 h at 60 °C. Furthermore, this novel spore-coat laccase is able to biodecolorize eight structurally different recalcitrant synthetic dyes (Congo red, methyl orange, methyl red, Coomassie brilliant blue R250, bromophenol blue, malachite green, crystal violet and Remazol brilliant blue R), in just 30 min at 40 °C in the presence of the natural redox mediator acetosyringone.

Abstract
In the present study, a mixed culture from a local agricultural soil sample was isolated for Metanil Yellow (MY) dye decolorization. The metagenomic analysis confirmed that 42.6% has been dominated by genus Bacillus, while Acinetobacter (14.0%) is present in the microbial communities of the mixed culture. For fungi diversity analysis, around 97.0% was “unclassified” fungi and 3% was Candida. The preliminary investigation in minimal salt media (MSM) showed that 100% decolorization was achieved after 24 h of incubation. Response surface methodology (RSM) was successfully applied using Box-Behnken design (BBD) to study the effect of four independent parameters—MY dye concentration, glucose concentration, ammonium sulfate concentration, and pH—on MY dye decolorization by the mixed bacterial culture. The optimal conditions predicted by the desirability function were 73 mg/L of MY, 1.934% glucose, 0.433 g/L of ammonium sulfate, and a pH of 7.097, with 97.551% decolorization The correlation coefficients (R2 and R2 adj) of 0.913 and 0.825 indicate that the established model is suitable to predict the effectiveness of dye decolorization under the investigated condition. The MY decolorization of the mixed bacterial culture was not affected by the addition of heavy metals in the growth media. Among the 10 heavy metals tested, only copper gave 56.19% MY decolorization, whereas the others gave almost 100% decolorization. The decolorization potential of the mixed bacterial culture indicates that it could be effective for future bioremediation of soil-contaminated sites and treatment solutions of water bodies polluted with the MY dye.

Abstract
Industrialization increases use of dyes due to its high demand in paper, cosmetic, textile, leather and food industries. This in turn would increase wastewater generation from dye industrial activities. Various dyes and its structural compounds present in dye industrial wastewater have harmful effects on plants, animals and humans. Synthetic dyes are more resistant than natural dyes to physical and chemical methods for remediation which makes them more difficult to get decolorize. Microbial degradation has been researched and reviewed largely for quicker dye degradation. Genetically engineered microorganisms (GEMs) play important role in achieving complete dye degradation. This paper provides scientific and technical information about dyes & dye intermediates and biodegradation of azo dye. It also compiles information about factors affecting dye(s) biodegradation, role of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in process of dye(s) degradation and perspectives in this field of research.

Abstract
Wastewater produced by the textile industry containing azo dyes and anthraquinone dyes is significant source of pollution to the environment and is toxic for aquatic life. To overcome the high-energy cost of traditional electrochemical oxidation, a custom-built power supply device for the degradation of anthraquinone and azo dyes by low voltage of 15.0-20.0 V pulsed discharge was investigated. Titanium coated with mixed oxide (Ti/IrO2 -RuO2 -SnO2 ) plates and pure titanium plates were used as the anode and cathode, respectively, for the generation of chlorine in the dye solution. For the anthraquinone dye Reactive Blue 19, 60.0% of the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and 22.0% of the total organic carbon (TOC) were removed using this system. A comparison of the direct current electrolysis and pulsed discharge revealed that using the pulsed discharge method reduced the energy cost by 68.6%. UV-visible, LC-MS, and GC-MS were used to identify the intermediate compounds formed during the degradation of Reactive Blue 19. The results indicate that in the process of oxidation by chlorine/hypochlorite, the chromophore group was first oxidized to -NH2 , followed by decolorization via chlorination of the aromatic rings. The results confirm that low-voltage pulse electrolysis can be used for the degradation of industrial dyes in waste effluents. PRACTITIONER POINTS: Low-voltage pulse electrolysis can be used for the degradation of industrial dyes and/or dyes in waste effluents. For anionic dye Reactive Blue 19, 60.0% of COD and 22.0% of TOC were removed using low-voltage (20.0 V) pulse electrolysis. The pulsed discharge method reduced the energy cost of this degradation process by 68.6% compared with direct current electrolysis. The intermediate compounds formed during the degradation of Reactive Blue 19 were confirmed by UV-visible spectroscopy, LC-MS, and GC-MS.

Abstract
Up to 84 000 tons of dye can be lost in water, and 90 million tons of water are attributed annually to dye production and their application, mainly in the textile and leather industry, making the dyestuff industry responsible for up to 20% of the industrial water pollution. The majority of dyes industrially used today are aromatic compounds with complex, reinforced structures, with anthraquinone dyes being the second largest produced in terms of volume. Despite the progress on decolorization and degradation of azo dyes, very little attention has been given to anthraquinone dyes. Anthraquinone dyes pose a serious environmental problem as their reinforced structure makes them difficult to degrade naturally. Existing methods of decolorization might be effective but are neither efficient nor practical due to extended time, space, and cost requirements. Attention should be given to the emerging routes for dye decolorization via the enzymatic action of oxidoreductases, which have already a strong presence in various other bioremediation applications. This review will discusses the presence of anthraquinone dyes in the effluents and ways for their remediation from dyehouse effluents, focusing on enzymatic processes.
