“…These molecules are eventually assimilated and used by more microorganisms, which eventually turns complex compounds into CO 2 and H 2 O [146] . Fungi have the ability to adhere to and degrade microplastics, and the mycelium they produce disrupts the physical structure of the plastic, which is more conducive to the biodegradation of microplastics [127] . Most studies of plastic-degrading fungi have been conducted under terrestrial conditions instead of in the ocean [147] , [148] .…”

“…The process may involve enzymes including esterases, lipases, cutinases, peroxidases and laccase [8] . Fungi are able to degrade plastics using intracellular enzymes mediated by cytochrome P450 family epoxidases (phase I enzyme) and transferases (phase II enzyme) [127] . Few studies have been performed in situ on degrading enzymes in the marine plastisphere, and most plastic degrading enzymes have been found under laboratory conditions using strains from enriched cultures.…”

“…From the dumped fibers, only natural fibers have potential for further microbial exploration, for instance by microbial use as carbon source, thereafter, producing ethanol, organic acids, enzymes, and polysaccharides (Mazzoto et al, 2021). However, efforts have been recently made to develop microbial-based solutions to waste generated by the use of synthetic fibers (Mishra et al, 2020, Mishra et al, 2022. Besides natural products produced by microbes found in the wild, there is also other approaches under investigation.…”

Fashion industry is the second most polluting industry in the world representing a 2 trillion dollars and growing valuation (Pal, 2017). This dual context makes its challenges hard to address. From one side, fashion design education and practice systems have been perpetuating an industrial-focused approach which relies mostly in the economic improvement through fast cycles of product development (Pal, 2017). On the other side, fashion industry has also been closed to either multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary initiatives outside the scope of the artistic disciplines. Therefore, innovative approaches are needed to solve fashion industrial challenges. One of the most promising fields to tackle fashion current environment and technological problems is microbiology (Mazzoto et al., 2021). During the past 50 years, microbiology has played a vital role in solving human grand challenges in health, agriculture, food, and waste management sectors, and it also represents an opportunity for fashion industry as well. Microbiology biotechnological potential for the fashion industry relies mostly on the improvement of toxic waste bioremediation and the development of novel biomaterials and biomolecules. Moreover, the emergent field of synthetic biology is expanding the tools and approaches available, and they can already be seen in the development of engineered living materials that have functional properties (Mazzoto et al., 2021). Despite the urgent need for change, there is still a long way until a more sustainable fashion industry is achieved. Therefore, microbiological research and innovation need maturation to be able to scale-up and reach a global impact for tackling fashion industrial problems.

To activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and degrade methylene blue (MB), cobalt and nitrogen‐doped porous carbon composite catalysts were prepared through pyrolysing zeolitic imidazolate framework ZIF‐9 and dicyandiamide (DCDA) at 700–900 °C with various mass ratios. Powder X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Brunauer‐Emmett‐Teller results showed that Co, porous carbon and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) co‐existed in the catalyst prepared at 800 °C with a ZIF‐9/DCDA ratio of 1 : 3. Thermogravimetric analysis suggested that CNT@ZIF‐800 had a higher ratio of graphitic to turbostratic carbon than CNT@ZIF‐700. It had degraded 94.8 % MB within 30 min, which was about 1.9 times faster than its counterpart C‐ZIF‐800. It also showed faster degradation rates towards Congo red (98.5 %, 5 min) and slower rates towards rhodamine B (90.7 %, 30 min) than MB. Furthermore, XPS revealed that it had 14.5 % more Co−Nx/pyridinic‐N active sites than C‐ZIF‐800. EPR suggested that 1O2 might be the primary catalytic species whereas the SO4−⋅ and ⋅OH the secondary ones. The formation mechanism of such active species might be originated from the synergistic activation of PMS by CNTs, Co−Nx/pyridinic‐N and abundant Co sites in the CNT@ZIF‐800. This work not only provided efficient Fenton‐like catalysts for MB degradation, but also clarified the catalytic mechanism.
