Synergistic Approaches for Bioremediation of Environmental Pollutants: Recent Advances and Challenges

Synergistic Approaches for Bioremediation: Recent Advances and Challenges focuses on the exploitation of various biological treatment technologies and their use to treat toxic contaminants present in industrial effluent and restore the contaminated sites, which lacks in a more comprehensive manner in the existing titles on similar topics available in the global market. In 14 chapters, Synergistic Approaches for Bioremediation: Recent Advances and Challenges comprises advanced biotechnologies and updated information as well as future directions for researchers and scientists, who are working in the field of microbiology to develop sustainable waste management. Provides wide information to readers on state-of-art of application of biochar, microbes and their synergistic use for wastewater/industrial effluent treatment and environment protection Summarizes our current knowledge on use of biochar and microbes even dead biomass for dye decolorization and degradation and removal of heavy metals which may play a key role in achieving more productive and sustainable environment Explores different aspects of biological methods for contaminants removal for better insights into basic and advanced biotechnological applications Supplemented with tables and figures INDICE: 1. Conversion of wastes/biomass into biochar and its characteristics2. Removal of emerging contaminants in water/wastewater by biochar3. Application of biochar/microbes for wastewater treatment4. Biochar based water treatment system as a potential low-cost and sustainable technology for clean water provision5.
