Rotating biological contactors for wastewater treatment - A review [PDF]

, 2015
Rotating biological contactors (RBCs) for wastewater treatment began in the 1970s. Removal of organic matter has been targeted within organic loading rates of up to 120 g m−2 d−1 with an optimum at around 15 g m−2 d−1 for combined BOD and ammonia removal.

Degradation of Dyes by Fungi: A Bibliometric Study and Bibliographic Review

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT The degradation of dyes from textile effluents is considered a major challenge due to their high potential for environmental contamination and health risks due to their toxicity. In this sense, the use of fungi for the degradation of these compounds is reported in the literature as an ecological alternative with great potential.

Comparative Analysis of Fungal Spore Flora Among Birds, Insects and Air in a Temperate Japanese Forest

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Birds, insects and air each host distinct fungal spore communities in a Japanese temperate forest; birds and insects act as selective vectors, while air provides maximal diversity. Our study highlights the importance of analysing multiple taxa to understand ecosystem‐level fungal spore dispersal and interactions.

Purification and characterization of two lignin peroxidase isozymes produced by Bjerkandera sp. strain BOS55

FEBS Letters, 1998
The white‐rot fungus Bjerkandera sp. strain BOS55 excretes at least seven lignin peroxidase (LiP) isozymes. Two of these, LiP‐2 and LiP‐5 (molecular weight 40–42 kDa), were purified to homogeneity. Both isozymes had the same N‐terminal amino acid sequence which showed strong homology with LiP isozymes produced by other white‐rot fungi.

Changes in the Wood Fungal Community Composition in Living Chamaecyparis pisifera Trees During the Progression of Heart Rot Caused by Serpula himantioides

Forest Pathology, Volume 55, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Serpula himantioides is a widely distributed wood rot fungus that causes heart rot in various tree species. In Japan, heart rot due to S. himantioides occurs in Chamaecyparis pisifera; however, changes in the wood fungal community composition accompanying the progression of heart rot in living trees remain unclear.
