Ebook: Bioremediation Technologies: For Wastewater and Sustainable Circular Bioeconomy

Various physico-chemical approaches for the removal of toxic pollutants are available, but these are not very effective. Biological approaches using microorganisms, green plants or their enzymes to degrade/detoxify contaminants are eco-friendly and low cost. This book provides a comprehensive overview of contaminants, their toxicity, and eco-friendly approaches for their management by cost effective sustainable methods.

• Describes the application of biochar, microbes and their applications for wastewater/industrial effluent treatment.
• Summarizes the use of microbes, biomass, and biochar for dye decolorization and degradation and removal of heavy metals.
