Answer:

Explanation:
The petrochemical industry is an industry branch that produces organic intermediate products such as refinery products, natural gas, plastic, rubber, fiber raw materials .Petrochemical industry plays major role in Indian economy and growth. However, with rise in energy demand, petrochemical production has also increased, consequently generating complex waste during onshore and offshore exploration, refining, and production of oil. Petrochemical industries are the major source of organic and inorganic toxic pollutants. Organic pollutants primarily consist of complex polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and are mutagenic, carcinogenic, persistent in environment, and cause adverse affects on the environment and human health. These pollutants are major source of esthetic pollution and ecological disturbance in aquatic life because of their toxicity. Various chemical methods are applied for the removal of these pollutants because of the production of secondary pollutants. Thus, biological techniques are emphasized as ecological sustainable approach. Use of biological technologies in bioremediation is still in developing stages of research. In spite of great success in ex situ conditions, field-based studies are needed for appropriate technology implementation in environmental conditions. In bioremediation, use of bacteria and bacterial consortium was very well used with many advance applications. Mycoremediation (fungal treatment) method and its potential for PAHs removal is infancy. This chapter focuses on use of different fungal strains for the removal of PAHs. The metabolic, cellular, and molecular functioning of fungi has also been discusse
