In this paper we introduce a non-linear model for the biodegradation of organic pollutants in a water body. We assume that the pollutants are removed using fungi, that need nutrients and dissolved oxygen to thrive. We show that after an initial phase the process can be rendered entirely self-sustained, even without the constant supply of fungi, thereby becoming economically very much appealing.
