Bioremediation is a soft bioengineering technique to clean up
contaminated lands and soils using microbes, plants and earthworms.
It is also a technique to stabilise the eroded lands and prevent
soil erosion. Microbes are adapted to thrive in 'adverse
conditions' of high acidity, alkalinity, toxicity and high
temperature. Under favourable conditions of growth, microbes can
biodegrade and biotransform the complex hazardous organic chemicals
into simpler and harmless ones. Environmentalists are viewing
microbes such as yeast, bacteria, algae, diatoms and actinomycetes
as an 'eco-friendly nano-factories' for metal remediation. This
book addresses these issues regarding the benefits of microbes,
plants and earthworms in bioremediation.
