Pollution and ways to combat it have become topics of great concern
for researchers. One of the most important dimensions of this
global crisis is wastewater, which can often become contaminated
with heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and arsenic, which are
released from different industrial wastes, mines, and agricultural
runoff. Bioremediation of such heavy metals has been extensively
studied using different groups of bacteria, fungi, and algae, and
has been considered as a safer, eco-friendly, and cost-effective
option for mitigation of contaminated wasteland. The toxicity of
water impacts all of society, and so it is of great importance that
we understand the better, cleaner, and more efficient ways of
treating water. Recent Advancements in Bioremediation of Metal
Contaminants is a pivotal reference source that explores
bioremediation of pollutants from industrial wastes and examines
the role of diverse forms of microbes in bioremediation of
wastewater. Covering a broad range of topics including
microorganism tolerance, phytoremediation, and fungi, the role of
different extremophiles and biofilms in bioremediation are also
discussed. This book is ideally designed for environmentalists,
engineers, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and students in
the fields of microbiology, toxicology, environmental chemistry,
and soil and water science.
