Biodegradation of Xenobiotic Compounds

This book is about increasing environmental pollution is resultant from fast industrial expansion, particularly textile industries. As these industries extensively use different variety of synthetic dyes and ten to fifteen percent of these dyes are lost into waste water unit depicted it extremely colored which polluting our water bodies. Indirectly human being is highly affected. One of the most important environment challenges is to find out the highly efficient way of removal of dyes from textile industries. Various predictable methods were adopted to get rid of this environmental problems but bioremediation by white rot basidiomycetes was proved to be highly economical and environmental friendly. WRF are however competent in the degradation of recalcitrant Compounds like xenobiotics, lignin and dye stuff by their extra cellular ligninolytic enzyme system. The objective of this book is to decolorize & to detoxify the synthetic as well as the dye based textile effluents by Agaricus species. Therefore we conclude that white-rot fungi and their Ligninolytic enzymes are promising to replace the conventional chemical processes.
