Role of glucose in fungal decolorization of wood pulp bleaching effluents

The white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium, when immobilized on discs in a rotating biological contactor (RBC), can effectively decolorize the first alkaline extraction stage (E 1) effluent from the bleach plant of a wood pulp production facility. We have shown that to degrade lignin and ligni...

Zusammenfassung:	The white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium, when immobilized on discs in a rotating biological contactor (RBC), can effectively decolorize the first alkaline extraction stage (E 1) effluent from the bleach plant of a wood pulp production facility. We have shown that to degrade lignin and lignin-derived chromophoric structures, a co-substrate such as glucose must be added.
