## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** The use of enzymes has attracted much interest for the decolourization of dyes from wastewater as an alternative to conventional treatments, which have limitations. Laccase can be used to decolourize dyes and its substrate range can be extended by inclusion of mediators.

## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** In the textile industry, large quantities of intensely coloured and toxic effluents are released, causing serious environmental pollution. Several biotechnological approaches have been suggested to eliminate this pollution source in an eco‐efficient manner. Laccase can b
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** The capacity and mechanism of adsorption of the reactive dyes monoazo (RR2) and diazo (RR141), using a new adsorbent with a strong ecological appeal developed from the sludge of the textile effluent treatment process, were investigated. The kinetics and adsorption isothe
## Abstract The aim of this work is to verify the ability of 19 isolates of 13 different fungal species to decolorize the reactive dye blue‐BF‐R. The isolates of __Pleurotus pulmonarius, P. ostreatus, P. ëous, P. citrinopileatus, Lentinus edodes, Phanerochaete chrysosporium, Schizophyllum commune,
## Abstract The treatment of a segregated textile wastewater containing reactive dyes was investigated in two continuous‐flow process trains using ozonation and biological processes. The degree of decolorization and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) removal achieved by ozonation followed by aerobic tr
