As we know that there are many groups of bacteria and other microorganisms are present in sewage sludge. Sewage sludge contains water, organic matter, nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus), microorganisms, and potentially heavy metals or persistent contaminants. Sewage sludge is the nutrient-rich, semi-solid residual byproduct generated during the treatment of municipal wastewater. Composed of organic matter, microorganisms, and inorganic materials, it is treated to reduce pathogens and moisture, turning it into "biosolids" for agricultural fertilizer, land reclamation, or energy recovery (methane production). The biodegradability of selected acid dyes like Methyl thymol blue and methyl red when treated with bacteria free sludge Dyes, by the sewage sludge has been investigated here. Methyl thymol blue has been found to be most sensitive for biodegradation, followed by methyl red when treated with bacteria free sludge Dyes. The possibility of the removal of acid dyes from contaminated effluents by using sewage sludge has been discussed in this Study. The effluent from the textile industry is a complex mixture of recalcitrant molecules that can harm the environment and human health.
KEYWORDS
The study of the biodegradation of dyes by sewage sludge have shown that the microorganism is capable of causing the biodegradation of the dyes are available in the sewage sludge. The finding suggest that the waste water of dye-plants or textile mills can be released into the sewerages at pre-determined rates as a save method of their desposal.
