Rhizomicrobiome Dynamics in Bioremediation

Introduction

Intensified agrarian and industrial activity has led to earth's soil and groundwater resources becoming polluted with hazardous materials.

Bioremediation delivers a green technology using dynamics of living organisms, typically bacteria, fungi, microalgae and also plants to eliminate contaminants from ecosystem. This biological know-how is not only cost-effective compared to conventional physico-chemical approaches, but also very successful and is being employed in the field.

Focus of the Book

This book focuses on important issues for several critical and common environmental pollutants, resulting in a compilation having recent updates on the bioremediation applications towards green and clean environment.

Recent Updates and Approaches

This volume also describes updates on various novel approaches of bioremediation including nanotechnology, rhizomicrobiome technology, composting, metagenomics, and biosurfactants-based bioremediation.

Target Audience

This volume is a resource for researchers, environmentalists, professionals and policy makers.
