"Microbial Biodegradation and Bioremediation" brings together
experts in relevant fields to describe the successful application
of microbes and their derivatives for bioremediation of potentially
toxic and relatively novel compounds. This single-source reference
encompasses all categories of pollutants and their applications in
a convenient, comprehensive package.
Our natural biodiversity and environment is in danger due to the
release of continuously emerging potential pollutants by
anthropogenic activities. Though many attempts have been made to
eradicate and remediate these noxious elements, every day thousands
of xenobiotics of relatively new entities emerge, thus worsening
the situation. Primitive microorganisms are highly adaptable to
toxic environments, and can reduce the load of toxic elements by
their successful transformation and remediation.
Describes many novel approaches of microbial bioremediation
including genetic engineering, metagenomics, microbial fuel cell
technology, biosurfactants and biofilm-based
bioremediationIntroduces relatively new hazardous elements and
their bioremediation practices including oil spills, military waste
water, greenhouse gases, polythene wastes, and moreProvides the
most advanced techniques in the field of bioremediation, including
insilico approach, microbes as pollution indicators, use of
bioreactors, techniques of pollution monitoring, and more
