Abstract

Distilleries are responsible for the generation of ecotoxic wastewater spent wash. Spent wash contains caramel, melanoidin and much more toxic chemicals. Melanoidin is a recalcitrant pigment responsible to give brownish colour to spent wash. In this study the physicochemical properties of spent wash effluent are studied. The isolated indigenous bacterial strain K5 was selected for the study of melanoidin degradation. Spent wash dilution up to 20% was used to study the degradation of melanoidin by means of isolated bacterial strain. The maximum degradation of about 55% was observed by use of isolated strain K5. This study shows that by analyzing physicochemical parameters and using indigenous bacterial strains biodegradation of spent wash contaminated land or water can be possible.
