Fungal Species: Myrothecium verrucaria

Mycoremediation of anthraquinone dyes from textile industries: a mini-review

Textile factories create large amounts of harmful wastewater containing dyes that damage water ecosystems. Scientists have discovered that certain mushroom fungi can naturally break down these toxic dyes using special enzymes. By growing these fungi on support materials, the treatment becomes even more effective and can be reused multiple times, offering an eco-friendly and cost-effective solution for cleaning contaminated water.

Biochar Composite with Enhanced Performance Prepared Through Microbial Modification for Water Pollutant Removal

Scientists created a special type of charcoal (biochar) by using fungi to break down agricultural waste before processing it. This fungal-treated biochar is much better at removing pollutants like dyes, antibiotics, and heavy metals from water compared to regular biochar. The material can be reused many times, making it practical and cost-effective for cleaning contaminated water.
