    Synthetic dyes are widely used in textile industries, being characterized as easy- to-use substances, with great variety and profitability. Despite their attractiveness, dyes are also considered complex compounds, being characterized by their toxicity, hazardousness and difficult degradation. Treating wastewater before release into water bodies is essential for the environment. The biological method can be used with algae, bacteria, and fungi, the latter organisms being considered as one of the best models for treating effluents. Therefore, the present study sought to investigate the use of the fungus Aspergillus tamarii kita UCP 1279, isolated from the Caatinga Biome, to discolor a solution containing a textile dye from a laundry located in the interior of the state of Pernambuco. The discoloration of the Marine Direct 2R dye was evaluated at a concentration of 50 mg/L, these experiments were carried out using the microorganism A. tamarii kita under living and dead conditions, in different amounts of biomass (2, 4, and 6 grams). In addition, biomass reuse was evaluated, so that, after the first decolorization test of 120 minutes, two further decolorization sequences with 120 minutes each were conducted for all conditions. The best condition obtained with 2 grams of biomass was found in the dead condition, which, in just 15 minutes, discolored 97% of the color while, with 4 and 6 grams of biomass, the best performance was verified in the living condition, in which, at 15 minutes it reached 100% removals for both 4 and 6 grams of biomass. In the tests with the reuse of biomass, both conditions (live/dead) demonstrated efficiency in discoloring the dye in different quantities of biomass, at the end of the tests, thus showing the potential of the microorganism A. tamarii kita in carrying out the dye decolorization textile. Therefore, due to the effectiveness of the microorganism, the development of future research investigating the optimization of the process deserves to be studied, to provide an understanding of the best conditions for using A. tamarii kita, so that its use can be made viable on an industrial scale, as a new biological method to treat effluents containing textile dyes.
