Overview

This book will address a critical gap in the existing literature by providing a comprehensive exploration of the versatile role fungi play in mitigating water pollution. As the global demand for sustainable and efficient wastewater treatment solutions intensifies, understanding and harnessing the unique capabilities of fungi become increasingly vital. The book will explore the biological and ecological aspects of fungi, examining their diverse mechanisms for removing contaminants from wastewater, including mycofiltration, mycosorption, and fungal biosorption. By offering a thorough review of the current research and practical applications, the proposed book will join the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world implementation, providing readers with actionable insights for sustainable water management practices. This proposed book will serve as a comprehensive reference for professionals in environmental science, water management, and biotechnology, offering them a detailed understanding of the potential and limitations of fungi in wastewater treatment. The proposed book will educate and inspire a broader audience, including undergraduate and graduate students, environmental enthusiasts, and professionals in allied fields. By presenting the information in an accessible manner, the book will strive to empower readers with the knowledge to advocate for and implement eco-friendly wastewater treatment solutions, fostering a more sustainable approach to water resource management globally. Ultimately, the background and purpose of this proposed book revolve around contributing to the growing body of knowledge in the intersection of mycology and environmental science while promoting a paradigm shift towards greener and more efficient wastewater treatment methods.
