Beskrivning

This timely reference book discusses the biotechnological applications of microorganisms as a crucial solution for the sustainable management of different types of toxic pollutants. It reviews the sustainable biodegradation approach and resource recovery for different kinds of pollutants like plastic wastes, pharmaceutical wastes, pesticides, and textile industry wastes. The book provides an understanding of biotechnology-based interventions toward a zero-waste route.KEY FEATURESProvides a deep understanding of biodegradation of toxic pollutants from industries ranging from textiles to pharmaceuticalsPresents novel technologies for the sustainable treatment of environmental pollutionReviews crucial considerations like energy requirements and cost analysisBrings out the latest themes such as the eco-design study of bio-nanomaterials, bio-nanofilters, and assessment for the treatment of emerging pollutants and IoT-based technologyCovers the latest research developments in the biodegradation of antibiotics, pesticides, and electronic wastesThis book is meant for scientists, ecologists, microbiologists, industry experts, researchers, students, innovators involved in biotechnology research, and policymakers focused on bioremediation.
