Low efficiency of dye removal by mixed bacterial communities and high rates of dye decolorization by white-rot fungi suggest a combination of both processes to be an option of treatment of textile wastewaters containing dyes and high concentrations of organics. Bacteria were able to remove mono-azo dye but not other chemically different dyes whereas decolorization rates using Irpex lacteus mostly exceeded 90 percent within less than one week irrespective of dye structure. Decolorization rates for textile wastewaters containing 2-3 different dyes by fungal trickling filters (FTF) attained 91, 86 and 35percent within 5-12 d.
