Abstract
Forty-five species of twelve genera of the Fungi Imperfecti were screened for those fungal candidates best able to rapidly convert soluble and suspended organic material (as measured by BOD) from corn- and soy food-processing waste streams to mycelial protein. Rapidly growing fungal strains were selected which were readily removed from the digested waste effluents by coarse filtration. Results on both soy and corn wastes gave definite encouragement that the commercial use of selected strains of certain species of Fungi Imperfecti to remove BOD in a readily harvested form is practical.
