Abstract
The potential for Micromonospora spp. (Non Streptomyces Actinomycete) isolated from Vasant Sagar Dam, located in Sangli district of Maharashtra, was studied to decolorize dye wastewater from textile industry (Rem-Red and Rem-blue). Micromonospora spp. successfully decoulorised the textile wastewater containing two dyes, Rem-red and Rem-blue. Decolourisation studies were carried by inoculating intact cells and cellular extracts of Micromonospora spp. The maximum decolourisation was observed at pH 7.0 at five days incubation period at room temperature.
