AB  - This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of an eminent decay fungus, 
      Phanerocheate chrysosporium of organic residues on wastewater sludge for its 
      improvement through decomposition and separation of waste particles by Liquid 
      State Bioconversion (LSB). The effect of fungal treatment was compared to 
      uninoculated (Control) at three different harvests 7, 14 and 21 days after 
      inoculation (DAI). The observed results showed that the weight loss and solid 
      content of wastewater sludge were significantly influenced by Phanerocheate 
      chrysosporium. Both parameters were highly influenced at 7 DAI. The COD and pH of 
      wastewater sludge were also highly influenced by fungal treatment.
