Beskrivning

The rapid expansion of human civilization and industrialization has led to a significant increase in the amount of pollutants in the environment, such as pesticides and electronic waste. These pollutants have detrimental effects on living organisms, including human health. The remediation of these contaminants has become a pressing environmental issue that is currently receiving much attention. Recent studies have demonstrated that soil microorganisms play a crucial role in restoring and improving disturbed ecosystems. This approach is not only eco-friendly, but also more cost-effective than other methods. The use of microbes for the restoration of degraded ecosystems is the focus of the proposed book.
