Textile industry releases large quantities of toxic dyes, which is a threat to public health and needs proper management before their release into environment. Out of the different approaches used these days, biodegradation and bio-decolorization is considered an eco-friendly and effective technique as this involves the use of microbes. This technique has the potential to be used effectively for a wide variety of dyes. In biological methods, mainly bacteria, fungi, and some algae are usually employed to remove or decolorize dyes present in textiles effluents and wastewaters. A number of researchers have used bacterial strains and relevant isolated enzymes successfully to decolorize a number of dyes. In this review article, various biological methods that have been used for the biodegradation and decolorization of textile dyes have been described. The review will also revive the significance of biological methods over other physical and chemical treatment methods that would be helpful in ensuring clean environment if used on large scale. Out of these methods, biodegradation through bacterial strains is considered as the best alternative to control water pollution as the growth rate of bacteria is considerably high as compared to other microorganisms. Thus if used the required biomass needed for biodegradation can be obtained in comparatively short interval of time.
