Dye Degradation by Fungi

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Dye Biodegradation, Mechanisms and Techniques

Abstract

Dye pollution is rising drastically due to massive use in different types of industrial activities. Synthetic dye pollution is the major issue of the environment at present due to their recalcitrant, toxic, carcinogenic and mutagenic behavior. Dye pollution affects aquatic life by impairing the sunlight permeability and can damage the aquatic ecosystem terribly. Therefore, treatment of dye-containing wastewater is required. Bioremediation seems as safe and ecofriendly approach for wastewater treatment. Fungi have massive dye decolorization potential and can be used for treatment. Studies have reported many fungal species for decolorization of dye so, for better understanding of their application in wastewater treatment process, the involved mechanism in dye decolorization should be known. This review focused on application process of fungi in dye decolorization, role of enzyme, protein, genes and surface functional group in degradation and biosorption process. The toxicity of fungal degraded dye end products is also reviewed in this chapter which is an important aspect in fungal application for dye contaminated wastewater treatment.
