Abstract
The colour removal achieved under anaerobic conditions is also called reductive decolourisation, which is composed of a biological part, i.e. the reducing equivalents are biologically generated, and a chemical part, i.e. the formed electrons reduce chemically the dyes. The overall objective of this research was to explore different strategies to increase the reduction of dyes in bioreactors by using thermophilic anaerobic granular sludge and redox mediators
