This 4-volume set focuses on the use of microbial bioremediation
and phytoremediation to clean up pollutants in soil, such as
pesticides, petroleum hydrocarbons, metals, and chlorinated
solvents, which reduce the soil’s fertility and renders it unfit
for plant growth. The volumes cover the many diverse eco-friendly
microbial bioremediation and phytoremediation techniques for
sustainable soil management. Volume 4: Degradation of Pesticides
and Polychlorinated Biphenyls addresses pesticide degradation, PCBs
degradation, and genetic interventions. It begins by describing
environment pesticide degradation, mechanisms and sustainability,
microbes and microbial enzymes, plant microbe interactions,
organophosphorus degradations and endosulfan degradation. It then
goes on to discuss PCBs and degradation, cypermethrin, degradation
by Phanerochaete chrysosporium, carvone and surfactants for
degradation of PCBs. The book also advocates for genetic systems
for degradation of PCBs and pesticides, with discussion of the
different advantages and disadvantages for each strategy and the
various techniques. Together, these four volumes provide in-depth
coverage of the mechanisms, advantages, and disadvantages of the
bioremediation and phytoremediation technologies for safe and
sustainable soil management. The diverse topics help to arm
biologists, agricultural engineers, environmental and soil
scientists and chemists with the information and tools they need to
address soil toxins that are a dangerous risk to plants, wildlife,
humans and, of course, the soil itself.
