The brightly colored synthetic dyes used in the textile industry are discharged at high concentrations—for example, various azo dyes including Methylene Blue (MB) and Methyl Orange (MO)—which is a matter of global concern, as such dyes are harmful to humans and the environment. Microbial degradation is considered an efficient alternative for overcoming the disadvantages of conventional physical and chemical dye removal methods. In this study, we investigated the potential of multiple types of the enzyme-producing extremophilic bacteria Bacillus FW2, isolated from food waste leachate, for the decolorization and bioremediation of artificial synthetic dyes. The screening of enzyme production and assaying of bacterial strain enzymes are essential for enhancing the breakdown of azo bonds in textile azo dyes. The degradation efficiencies of the water-soluble dyes MB and MO were determined at different concentrations using rice husk, which is an efficient substrate. Using the rice husks, the MO was removed completely within 20 h, and an estimated 99.8% of MB was degraded after 24 h by employing shaking at 120 rpm at 40 °C—whereas a removal efficiency of 98.9% was achieved for the combination of MB + MO. These results indicate the possibility of applying an extremophilic bacterial strain, Bacillus sp., for large-scale dye degradation in the future. |
