MYCOREMEDIATION
This is a process of using mycelium to remediate toxins on this planet. As our waste issues grow in both quantity and quality, developing a variety of solutions is important. Mycoremediation is slowly becoming one of those solutions. Fungi like Pleurotus, Aspergillus, Trichoderma can be allies in breaking down plastics, petrochemicals, pesticides, and organic matter. With the growth of small scale mushroom farms around the country, the amount of mycelial biomass available to any one location is expanding rapidly. Learning to apply this “waste” mycelium
in a remediation setting would allow local solutions to toxic problems. It should be noted that goals for mycoremediation should not be mixed with production of edible or medicinal products, though the spawn production sector can address all these opportunities at once.
