Abstract
Abstract Toxic, high temperature synthetic dye wastewater is currently treated biologically at lower temperatures via adsorption-based decolourization due to lack of suitable thermophilic candidates. Here, the dye decolourizing abilities of a thermophilic fungus, Thermomucor indicae-seudaticae at different temperatures and dye concentrations were investigated in an azo–anthraquinone dye mixture (Azure B, Congo Red, Trypan Blue and Remazol Brilliant Blue R) over 6 days. Assays with living and inactivated T. indicae-
