Cr(VI) is introduced into environment as a byproduct of industries. It is highly toxic. Biosorption of hexavalent chromium by various types of sawdust appears as a very cost-effective alternative for decontamination of Cr(VI) bearing effluents. In this work water extract of siris sawdust is used for the bioremediation of hexavalent chromium. Cr(VI) ions were reduced to Cr(III) ions as a result of oxidation of organic components present in the water extract of siris sawdust. Formation of Cr(III) is proved by UV-VIS spectroscopy. Functional groups involved in the reduction of Cr(VI) are characterized by FTIR spectroscopy. Bioremediation rate is increased by the use of anionic surfactant sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS) and neutral surfactant Triton-X-100 (TX-100). Here they act as micellar catalyst. Formation of micelles which is responsible for the catalysis of the process is proved by SEM and optical images of the solution. In absence of surfactants 39% of the total chromium(VI) is reduced within 531 h whereas removal percentage increases upto 54 % in presence of TX-100. Again in presence of SDS the reduction process is almost 99 % complete within 531 h.
