Abstract

Heavy metal pollution, cleaning and recycling are a major environmental issue. In particular, there is a need for efficient techniques to treat wastewaters. Conventional technologies to treat industrial waters are limited by stringent health policies and emerging contaminants. Fungi-based nanotechnology is rapidly emerging as an effective technology to treat industrial wastewaters. This chapter reviews the recent developments in fungal biosorption, biological synthesis of nanoparticles using fungi, and the application of fungi-based nanosorbents for heavy metals removal.
