This document discusses white rot fungi and their application in the pulp and paper industry. It begins by defining white rot fungi as basidiomycetes capable of degrading lignin. It then lists and provides images of various white rot fungi species. The document explains that white rot fungi produce non-specific enzymes like laccase and peroxidases that are exploited in pulp and paper processing to separate cellulose fibers from lignin through mechanical or chemical pulping. Specifically, white rot fungi can reduce energy usage and environmental impact of bleaching processes in pulp mills. Examples of white rot fungi used include Ceriporiopsis subvermispora and Pycnoporus cinnabarinus. In conclusion, white rot fungi have benefits for both
