Synopsis

The book Eco-Restoration of the Polluted Environment: A Biological Perspective explores recent advances in biological strategies for the remediation of polluted environments, including soil, water, and air. It covers bioremediation of heavy metals, radioactive waste, and waste gases, which are believed to be bottleneck problems for researchers working in this field. The book contains separate chapters on genetic engineering technology for enhancement of the bioremediation potential of bioresources and the role of biosurfactants, enzymes, and exo-polysaccharides for bioremediation of polluted environments, along with basic aspects of eco-restoration by microorganisms. It summarizes the significant developments of many years of research in bioremediation technology and discusses them critically by presenting selected examples, while also considering future research directions in the area.

Features:

• Deep insight into the modes of action of various bioremediation strategies, as well as the status and progress of bioremediation technology for sustainable developmental practices
• A research overview of bioremediation strategies using engineered biological resources for remediation of contaminants. The book will also accelerate the application of suitable engineered microbes and plants for field applications
• A survey of interdisciplinary findings and insights on the impact of pollution on the ecosystem and human health, climate, and other global changes, with individual solutions to the pollution issue
• Comprehensive information for relevant stakeholders such as global leaders, agriculturists, investors, innovators, farmers, policymakers, extension workers, agro-industrialists, environmentalists, and the education and health sectors, as well as students and researchers in the field
