Role of Fungi in Bioremediation and Environmental Pollution
A Review Article
Keywords:
fungi, bioremediation, environment pollutentAbstract
The significance of fungi in all ecosystems as decomposers and symbionts is discussed in the presented paragraph. The most sustainable and safest technique to clean up polluted environments is fungal bioremediation. Fungi may remove a broad range of recalcitrant contaminants and toxins in a number of ways, including by secreting potent enzymes. Through using a variety of biological techniques to convert resistant contaminants into compounds that are safe for the environment, the bioremediation process is both economical and environmentally beneficial. Fungal form and diverse metabolic capabilities make them important bioremediation agents. Microbes need organic matter from pollution in order to properly develop and flourish. Mineralizing pollutants through converting them to water, carbon dioxide, hydrochloric acid, nitrogen gas, etc. is the primary bio-remediation goal. Heavy metals as well as radioactive ions are transformed into less soluble forms, making their decomposition challenging.
