The batik industry in Indonesia has an IKM (Small and Medium Industry) scale so that it does not yet have adequate waste treatment. In the long term, waste is disposed of directly into the environment which can damage aquatic ecosystems and harm human health. Textile wastewater has a complementary picture and has a deep color. One of the most dangerous heavy metals contained in textile waste is hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)). Several ways can be done to reduce hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) by bioremediation. Based on the results of the literature review, it shows that the bioremediation agents from single isolate microorganisms that are most effective in degrading chromium with high efficiency are Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The most effective consortium servers with constant reduction rates are the consortium of bacteria genus Mesophilobacter, Methylococcus, Agrobacterium, Neisseria, Xanthobacter, Deinococcus, Sporosarcina, and Bacillus by reducing BOD levels by 85.71%. The hexavalent chromium-degrading microorganisms are characterized by the presence of chromate reductase enzymes, mostly gram-negative bacteria, and a high growth rate.

A template-free oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalyst Fe and N co-doped hierarchical porous graphitic carbon (Fe,N/PGC) was prepared by pyrolyzing a nontoxic and low-cost iron-coordinated polydopamine polymer precursor at 800 °C. The obtained catalyst manifests outstanding oxygen reduction activity in a wide range of pH.

Phosphorus in wastewater accelerates eutrophication in water body. Textile wastewater is one of contributors to the phosphorus loading into water body which promotes the growth of algae, reducing the oxygen content and detrimental to surface water ecosystem. Myriad existing treatments for phosphorus removal have been developed but it requires a high cost treatment and maintenance. Rock filter system emerged as one of the alternative method for phosphorus removal from wastewater with steel slag as the filter media. However, application of the system in treating industrial wastewater is still unclear especially in big scale application and requires extensive study. This study is done to provide solution of phosphorus loading from textile wastewater using steel slag as filter material and to investigate the removal capacity of steel slag with high calcium and low ferum content. The steel slag was analyzed using XRF for its composition and to ensure the steel slag has high Ca content. Then, the aerated steel slag filter system was set-up on the site of textile industry for a month and analyzed according to parameter of pH, alkalinity, COD, DO, temperature and TSS. The result from this study showed that the aerated high calcium low ferum steel slag filter has a high efficiency of phosphorus removal rates varied from 35% to 67% in treating textile wastewater. It was found that aerated steel slag system was efficient in phosphorus removal by using industrial wastewater

We report a facile and high-efficiency technology using eco-friendly Aspergillus niger as a biosorbent to treat textile wastewater. Excellent adsorption ability with nearly 98% decoloration was achieved. The bioadsorption technology could be used to fight environmental damage caused by organic or inorganic pollutants.
