Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the applications of laccases within different industrial fields as well as their potential extension to the nanobiotechnology area is presented, where they are also used as cleaning agents for certain water purification systems, as catalysts for the manufacture of anti-cancer drugs and even as ingredients in cosmetics.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the application of SSF to the production of several metabolites relevant for the food processing industry, centred on flavors, enzymes (α-amylase, fructosyl transferase, lipase, pectinase), organic acids (lactic acid, citric acid) and xanthan gum.

638 citations

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This paper reviews the application of fungal immobilisation to dye removal and finds processes using immobilised growing cells seem to be more promising than those with free cells, since the immobilisation allows using the microbial cells repeatedly and continuously.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A review of the current status of laccase production by wild-type strains of filamentous fungi at the bioreactor scale is presented in this paper, where the authors discuss the main drawbacks of using laccases in a wide variety of processes, such as textile dye decolouration, pulp bleaching, effluent detoxification, biosensors and bioremediation.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: SS were very attractive materials for removing anionic dyes from dyed effluents and fitted well both the Freundlich and multilayer adsorption isotherm equations indicating the heterogeneity of the adsorbent surface.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: From a comprehensive literature review, it was found that some LCAs, in addition to having wide availability, have fast kinetics and appreciable adsorption capacities too.

TL;DR: The Third edition of the Kirk-Othmer encyclopedia of chemical technology as mentioned in this paper was published in 1989, with the title "Kirk's Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology: Chemical Technology".
Abstract: 介绍了Kirk—Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology(化工技术百科全书)(第五版)电子图书网络版数据库,并对该数据库使用方法和检索途径作出了说明,且结合实例简单地介绍了该数据库的检索方法。

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This review outlined the latest applications of iron oxide nanomaterials in wastewater treatment, and gaps which limited their large-scale field applications, as well as the outlook for potential applications and further challenges.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of agricultural solid wastes to remove two classes of dye, cationic and anionic dyes, was discussed and a simple comparison among cationi-and anionic dye adsorption by the same adsorbent was made, thus possibly opening the door for a better understanding of the dye-classified adaption process.
