One of the various problems which mankind faces is the solid waste disposal and its management. Lack of degradability, the closing of landfill sites and growing water and land pollution have led to concern about plastics. Biodegradation is necessary for water-soluble or water-immiscible polymers which can neither be recycled nor incinerated. It is important to consider the microbial degradation of natural and synthetic polymers to understand the mechanism involved. Microorganisms are responsible for degradation of the majority of plastics and abiotic factors play a very minor role. With the ex...
One of the various problems which mankind faces is
the solid waste disposal and its management. Lack of
degradability, the closing of landfill sites and
growing water and land pollution have led to concern
about plastics. Biodegradation is necessary for
water-soluble or water-immiscible polymers which can
neither be recycled nor incinerated. It is
important to consider the microbial degradation of
natural and synthetic polymers to understand the
mechanism involved. Microorganisms are responsible
for degradation of the majority of plastics and
abiotic factors play a very minor role. With the
excessive use of plastics and increasing pressure
being placed on capacities available for plastic
waste disposal, the need for biodegradable plastics
has assumed increasing importance. This book
includes the information about the microorganisms
(bacteria and fungi) and their enzymes involved in
the degradation of both synthetic as well as natural
plastics and their activities under different
environmental conditions.
