Fungi in Wastewater Treatment by Hussain, Chaudhery Mustansar; Srivastava, Neha; Hussain, Chaudhery Ghazanfar;

Long description:

This book will address the pressing issue of wastewater pollution by leveraging the unique properties of fungi for bioremediation. It will dive into the historical context of wastewater treatment and the gradual incorporation of fungi as a viable solution. The proposed book will emphasize the environmental and economic implications of traditional wastewater treatment methods and how fungal bioremediation offers a sustainable alternative.
The purpose of this proposed book will be to compile recent advancements and research findings in the field of fungal bioremediation. It will provide a platform for scientists to share their innovative approaches, experimental data, and success stories. By presenting a holistic view of fungal applications in wastewater treatment, the book seeks to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of these microorganisms among researchers and industry professionals.
Furthermore, the proposed book will address the technical challenges and potential limitations of using fungi in wastewater treatment. It will propose strategies to overcome these hurdles, offering practical solutions and recommendations. The ultimate goal of the proposed book will be to inspire further research and development, encouraging the adoption of fungal bioremediation as a mainstream practice in environmental management
