Industrial development have lead to the recognition and increasing understanding of interrelation between pollution, public health and environment. Industries result in generation of industrial effluent, and if untreated result in water, sediment and soil pollution. Metal remediation through common modern instrumental techniques is expensive and unsuitable in case of voluminous effluents containing complexing organic matter and low metal contamination. Biotechnological technological approaches

... hat are designed to cover such niches have dominated the literature and, subsequently, extensive reviews focusing on equilibrium and kinetics of metal biosorption have also come up. The purpose of this study deals with isolation of heavy metal resistant bacteria from industrial effluent which influences the metal degradation. Determination of pH, BOD, COD, is done to know how long contamination is present in the effluent. Degradation of certain toxic metal present in the industrial effluent eg. Copper, Nickel, Cadium, Lead, zinc etc, done by particular Bacillus spp, Pseudomonas spp, Klebsiella spp, Staphylococcus spp. These identification is done by biochemical characterization of various test. Recent studies shows that the isolation of heavy metal resistant bacteria from the industrial effluent, these strains are tolerant to various metal.
