Kinetics of bleach plant effluent decolorization by Phanerochaete chrysosporium
TLDR
The decolorization in a continuous flow reactor achieved approximately the same daily color removal rate, but had a longer working lifetime as compared to the batch reactor, thereby removing more color over the fungal lifetime.About:

Fungal dye decolourization: Recent advances and future potential
Prachi Kaushik,Anushree Malik +1 more
TL;DR: The studies discussed in this paper indicate fungal decolourization has a great potential to be developed further as a decentralized wastewater treatment technology for small textile or dyeing units, however, further research work is required to study the toxicity of the metabolites of dye degradation and the possible fate of the utilized biomass in order to ensure the development of an eco-friendly technology.

Decolorization of synthetic and real textile wastewater by the use of white-rot fungi
TL;DR: In this article, a batch and continuous reactors inoculated with white-rot fungi were operated in order to study decolorization of textile dyes, including Reactive Blue 4 (a blue anthraquinone dye) and Reactive Red 2 (a red azo dye).
RoleofManganese Peroxidases andLignin Peroxidases of Phanerochaete chrysosporium intheDecolorization of Kraft Bleach Plant Effluent
TL;DR: Results indicate that MNPs play a relatively more important role than LIPs in BPE decolorization by P. chrysosporium, and high rates of BPEDecolorization were seen on days 3 and 4 of incubation, when the cultures exhibit high levels of MNP activity but little or no LIP activity.

Role of manganese peroxidases and lignin peroxidases of Phanerochaete chrysosporium in the decolorization of kraft bleach plant effluent.
TL;DR: The role of lignin peroxidases (LIPs) and manganese peroxideases (MNPs) of Phanerochaete chrysosporium in decolorizing kraft bleach plant effluent (BPE) was investigated in this article.

Development of bioreactor systems for decolorization of Orange II using white rot fungus
TL;DR: Three different reactor configurations were designed and tested for decolorization of an azo dye, Orange II, with white rot fungus and all the bioreactors showed high and stableDecolorization activity in long-term operation.

Process of treating effluent from a pulp or papermaking operation
TL;DR: In this paper, a process of treating effluent from a pulp or paper-making operation to decolorize the effluent is provided in which a white-rot fungus is germinated and grown and is then induced into a secondary metabolic state.
