Popis: Two indigenous fungal strains, Trichoderma lixii FLU1 (TlFLU1) and Talaromyces pinophilus FLU12 (TpFLU12) showed potential to biodegrade anthracene. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) employing Box-Behnken Design (BBD) and Central Composite Design (CCD) methods optimized crucial physicochemical parameters like pH, temperature, biomass, substrate concentration and media composition. BBD maximized anthracene biodegradation efficiency by predicting 98.7–103.2 %. Analysis of Variance confirmed the model's accuracy with a significant F-value of 51.0 at p
