Abstract in English
The aim behind this study was to isolate and characterize fungi from fermented olive
mill wastewater to determine the superior one that can resist high organic load and total
phenol of fresh Olive Mill Wastewater (OMW).
Two different media Czapak Dox Agar (CzA) and Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) were
used for identification of fungi by studying macroscopic and microscopic characteristics.
However, Aspergilluss sclerotiorum, Paecilomyces sniveus and Mucor nircinelloides had
had been identified .
After testing the isolates on fresh olive mill wastewater solid mediums OMWA1
(50%OMW), OMWA2 (75%OMW) and OMWA3 (100%OMW).
Whereas P. niveus proves that was the superior one, which can resist high
concentration of fresh olive mill wastewater.
