Trichoderma Biomass as an Alternative for Removal of Congo Red and Malachite Green Industrial Dyes

Abstract: The present study evaluated the removal efficiency of two dyes, Congo red (CR) and malachite green (MG), using either fresh or dry fungal biomass of two species of Trichoderma (T. virens and T. viride) and activated carbon. After 24 h, the CR removal efficiency obtained with fresh biomass was higher than that obtained with activated carbon. For the MG dye, the average removal with activated carbon (99%) was higher than those obtained with dry and fresh biomass of T. viride and T. virens. Experimental results f… Show more

“…Fungal biomasses are composed of sugars, proteins, and lipids, and different functional groups (alcohols, carboxyl, and alkanes) which provide it certain properties and applications as a biosorption in treatments of wastewater (Isaza-Pérez et al, 2020;Ahmed and Ebrahim, 2020). Biotreatment of dyecontaining wastewater effluent by fungal cell was provided a cost-effective, easily applicable, eco-friendly (Salem et al, 2019;(Argumedo-Delira et al, 2021), and absence of nutrient needs (Ghany et al, 2019). Different species of fungus have been used as an effective candidate for the removal of a variety of dyes from effluents such as Trichoderma sp.…”

“…Complete decolorization of the malachite green and congo red dyes was observed when the fungus was further screened on broth medium containing the dyes. Decolorization of malachite green dye by Trichoderma virens at an absorption rate of 81.82 mg/g was reported [29]. The cultivation of Aspergillus niger in 500 g/L dyes resulted in a 100 % decolorization of different textile dyes [30].…”

“…One of the sorbents used in the purification processes are those produced from waste materials (low-cost adsorbents). Some of these materials are formed from waste substances that no longer have any use, e.g., peels, citrus stones, agricultural waste, fly ash, peat, slag and many others [31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43]. They are mainly characterized by their availability and cheap production cost, while their disadvantage is the relatively low sorption capacity compared with activated carbons or polymeric resins [34][35][36][37][38][39][40].…”
