“…According to some researches, biological wastewater treatment processes can be summarized in three main systems which include: Bioremediation, Phytoremediation and Mycoremediation [10]. Mycoremediation, thought to be an effective method of combating the ever-growing problem of water pollution, uses fungi's digestive enzymes or their derivatives to break down contaminants like heavy metals, pesticides, and hydrocarbons and remove pollutants from water [11]. Phytoremediation, on the other hand, uses plants and some rhizosphere microorganisms to aid in the recovery of polluted water [12].…”

Given that water is the main solvent in living organisms as well as in domestic and industrial activities, it must be treated as carefully as possible after multiple uses to get a harmless water quality. To remove the undesirable materials (e.g. organic matters, surfactants, petroleum products, unwanted metals, dyes, et.), the physicochemical water treatment process is used as the common method. This method of wastewater treatment uses flocculation – coagulation technique, which consists of mixing coagulant matters with water to collect, in solid clusters, the materials in suspension by gravity. Recently, environmental scientists have suggested biotechnology methods as the main alternatives in the treatment of wastewater, as they offer more benefits to the water quality and human health than chemical methods. This paper describes and assesses some modern biotechnology methods used in wastewater treatment.

“…The global uprise of urbanization and industrialization is closely linked to the increase of wastewater released from the industries and municipal remains which have potential effects on the environment. This wastewater consists of a high level of contaminants which includes heavy metals, hydrocarbons, pharamaseicticals dyes and different pesticides (Mrozik, 2021).Water is an essential aspect of human life, which includes: community health, production of food, economic durability, and ecosystem biodiversity. However, when its biological and physical attributes are changed due to the addition of pollutants then it becomes chronically ill for drinking and irrigation (Kløve et al, 2017).…”

Fungal strains are widely used for the cleaning of soil, sediments, groundwater, surface water, and the ecosystem. The presence of extracellular enzymes in fungi facilitates the process of bioremediation of textile dyes. This study was conducted to observe the quality of water being released from textile dyes industries and also the capability of some fungal strains which can remediate these dyes by showing the tendency of their resistance. Samples of water were collected from the polluted area surrounding the textile dyeing industries in Lahore. In the process of isolation, Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) medium was used to verify the fungal growth. Fungal strains were purified, and the morphological characterization of fungal strains was carried out at 10X and 100X by using a magnification microscope. The fungal strains, such as Aspergillus niger, Aspergillusoryzae, and Aspergillusflavus were identified. The stress of four types of dyes was given to each fungal strain. The results showed that Aspergillusoryzae was one of the most stable, non-toxic, and resistant fungal species against the high stress of dyes as compared to other species
