The textile industry is one of the industries that causes bad water pollution due to direct discharge of wastewater into rivers. The World Bank estimated that from17 % to 20 % of industrial water pollution came from dyeing and fabric processing plants which cause alarming number for textile manufacturers, as well as environmental managers and scientists. So far, the methods of treating textile wastewater are used such as coagulation, sintering, biodegradation, adsorption by activated carbon, oxidation methods. Among these methods, the biodegradation is widely applied to treat textile wastewater on a large scale. However, under anaerobic condition, azo .
