This project focuses on the degradation of lignin by specific fungi, aiming to enhance biotechnological applications in the pulp and paper industry and biofuel production. It involves characterizing ligninolytic enzymes to improve their industrial use and exploring their potential in bioremediation.
Lignin is a highly recalcitrant integral polymer in higher plants and the second most abundant organic polymer in nature.
Lignin degradation by white-rot fungi has been studied intensively in relation to highly important biotechnological applications such as biopulping, biobleaching and treating of pulp mill effluents.
Indeed, lignin-selective fungi that degrade lignin in preference to cellulose are considered the most promising fungi for alternative energy saving applications in pulp and paper…
