[0029] The strain MR-1 described in the present application is a model electrogenic microorganism, which is donated by Professor Nelson of the University of California, USA, and is preserved in the American Type Culture Collection Center (ATCC), with the strain number being ATCC700500 TM ; this strain can be directly purchased from the center. The white rot fungus strain described in the present application is purchased from the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC).

[0030] Liquid LB medium, solid plate LB medium, mineral salt medium, PDA medium and solid plate PDB medium are all commonly used in the art, and can be purchased or prepared according to the conventional formula.

[0031] Mineral salt medium containing 100-mesh rice straw: replace the lactic acid as a carbon source in the conventional mineral salt medium with 100-mesh sieved rice straw.

[0032] Embodiment:

[0033] A low-carbon source cost dye anaerobic biodegradation system, white rot fungus first hydrolyzes rice straw to generate carbohydrates such as glucose and xylose, and further metabolizes them into small-molecule organic matter such as ethanol. The electrogenic microorganism MR-1 utilizes small-molecule organic matter such as glucose and ethanol for anaerobic respiratory metabolism, releases electrons, and finally transmits the electrons to the dye pollutants, realizing efficient degradation of the pollutants, and the whole process is as shown in Figure 1 .

[0034] The specific implementation steps are as follows:

[0035] (1) Take out an appropriate amount of strain MR-1 stored in a-80℃ refrigerator, melt it, and inoculate it on a solid plate LB medium, and then invert it in a 30℃, dark environment incubator for culture until single colony is grown.

[0036] (2) Using a pipette, aspirate activated single colonies and inoculate them into 50 mL of liquid LB medium. Incubate at 30°C and 200 rpm with shaking for 12 h until the late logarithmic phase. Finally, collect the bacterial cells by centrifugation at 7000 rpm for 5 min in a 50 mL centrifuge tube. Resuspend the bacterial pellet in mineral salt medium and adjust the bacterial concentration to 4–6 × 10⁻⁶. 8 CFU / mL, for later use.

[0037] (3) Prepare solid plate PDA medium, inoculate the white rot fungus onto the PDA medium, and incubate it upside down in a constant temperature incubator at 30°C and in the dark for 7 days until the white rot fungus completely covers the surface of the medium.

[0038] (4) Using an 8mm diameter punch, transfer four white rot fungal blocks from step (3) into an Erlenmeyer flask containing 100mL of PDB medium. Place the Erlenmeyer flask in a shaker at 30℃ and 200rpm for aerobic shaking culture for 7 days. Culture until the white rot fungi form fungal spheres with a diameter of 3mm, then set aside for use.

[0039] (5) Take out the 8 white rot fungal balls from step (4), add them to a mineral salt culture medium containing 100 mesh rice straw, place them in a shaker, and react them at (30±0.5)℃ and (200±5)rpm.

[0040] (6) Add 47ml of the degraded rice straw solution from step (5), 3ml of the bacterial solution from step (2), and 0.005g of dye (methyl orange, methyl red, or naphthol green B) to the serum bottle and mix. Then, purge the mixture with high-purity nitrogen for 15 minutes to remove oxygen, and then seal it.

[0041] Experimental treatment group (MR-1 and white rot fungus combined), negative control group A (MR-1 only), and negative control group B (white rot fungus only) were set up, with three replicates in each group.

[0042] (7) Place the suspension prepared in step (6) into a shaker and incubate it at (30±0.5)℃ and (200±5)rpm. Take samples from the experimental group and the control group, and take the solution in the reaction system into centrifuge tubes and centrifuge at 12000rpm for 5min. After centrifugation, take the supernatant and measure the absorbance of the reaction system solution at its maximum absorption wavelength to calculate the dye degradation rate of the reaction system.

[0043] (8) The degradation rate is calculated using the following formula:

[0044]

[0045] In the formula, OD t The initial absorbance of the dye solution; OD tThe absorbance of the dye solution at degradation time t.

[0046] The rice straw used was obtained from farmland in Zhenjiang (sterilized for use), and the pollutants used were the strong polar azo dye methyl orange, the weak polar azo dye methyl red, and the metal complex dye naphthol green B.

[0047] The degradation effects of the white rot fungus and MR-1 combined degradation system using rice straw as a carbon source on different structural types of dye pollutants, including the strong polar azo dye methyl orange, the weak polar azo dye methyl red, and the metal complex dye naphthol green B, are shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4

[0048] As can be seen from Figure 2 , the degradation rate of the azo dye methyl orange by the white rot fungus and MR-1 combined degradation system can reach 95.9% at 120h, while the negative control group A is only 45.7% and the negative control group B is only 5.8%.

[0049] As can be seen from Figure 3 , the degradation rate of the azo dye methyl red by the white rot fungus and MR-1 combined degradation system can reach 97.2% at 96h, while the negative control group A is only 50.2% and the negative control group B is only 11.9%.

[0050] As can be seen from Figure 4 , the degradation rate of the metal complex dye naphthol green B by the white rot fungus and MR-1 combined degradation system can reach 95.9% at 120h, while the negative control group A is only 53.3% and the negative control group B is only 11.1%.

[0051] Therefore, Figures 2-4 the results show that the electricity-producing microorganism successfully degrades dye pollutants in the environment using rice straw through the white rot fungus and MR-1 combined degradation system, and the degradation rate of the combined degradation system on different types of dyes all reaches more than 95%, among which the degradation rate of the weak polar azo dye reaches 97.2% within 96 hours, which is the best; the degradation effects of the strong polar azo dye and the metal complex dye are second, but the degradation rates at 120 hours are all as high as 95.9%, which is also very high.

[0052] ​In summary, the combined degradation system of the electrogenic microorganism MR-1 and white rot fungi with rice straw as carbon source showed good degradation ability for different structural types of dye pollutants, such as different polar azo dye wastewater and metal complex dye wastewater, and had broad-spectrum degradation ability. At the same time, the system could use cheap agricultural waste such as rice straw as carbon source, which significantly reduced the cost of carbon source required for the remediation of environmental pollutants by electrogenic microorganisms. More importantly, the system converted waste rice straw into valuable carbon source in a way of waste treatment, realized the recycling of resources, and had important practical significance for the treatment of pollutants.
