Nature's Clean-Up Crew: The Impact of Microbial Technology on Waste Remediation

Nature’s Clean-Up Crew: The Impact of Microbial Technology on Waste Remediation; is a comprehensive book that explores the application of different microbial technologies such as bioaugmentation, biostimulation, bioleaching, biosorption, bioaccumulation, precipitation, etc., in addition to the application of genetically modified microorganisms in the bioremediation of environmental wastes. The book delves into the using of microbial enzymes in multipollutant bioremediation, the types of environmental wastes including wastewater and solid wastes (food waste, agriculture waste, industrial waste, medical waste, and electronic waste), and how microbes can interact with each of them. It also highlights the ability of microbes to produce value-added products from waste streams such as organic acids, bio-pigments, proteins, fatty acids, carbohydrates, enzymes, and biofuels.
