The live pellets of the fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium were found to remove more than 95% of the color of this wastewater within 1 d. The dye-removal capacity was a function of time and was proportional to the agitation rate; the optimum temperature was 30 degreesC. Both live and dead pellets were further examined in a repeated-batch mode for 5 d. The decolorization performance of live pellets remained high and stable for 5 d and they showed twice to thrice higher decolorization capacity than dead pellets.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessWhite-Rot FungusRemazol-Black-BOrange-IiPleurotus-OstreatusSynthetic DyesBioreactorIndustrialPeroxidaseLaccaseSystemArticle4856396421497672110.1007/BF029934712-s2.0-0346936504N/AWOS:000187615000012Q3
