Bioremediation of Environmental Pollutants

This book collates the latest trends and technological advancements in bioremediation, especially for its monitoring and assessment.

Divided into 18 chapters, the book summarizes basic concepts of waste management and bioremediation, describes advancements of the existing technologies, and highlights the role of modern instrumentation and analytical methods, for environmental clean-up and sustainability.

The chapters cover topics such as the role of microbial fuel cells in waste management, microbial biosensors for real-time monitoring of bioremediation processes, genetically modified microorganisms for bioremediation, application of immobilized enzyme reactors, spectroscopic techniques, and in-silico approaches in bioremediation monitoring and assessment.

The book will be advantageous not only to researchers and scholars interested in bioremediation and sustainability but also to professionals and policymakers.
