Detection and Mineralization

Redaktion: Dubey, Kashyap K.; Sanromán, Maria Ángeles; Pandey, Ashok; Pant, Kamal K.

Beschreibung

This reference book discusses the applications of microorganisms as a crucial solution for the sustainable management of toxic pollutants. It describes the microbial remediation of different kinds of pollutants like wastewater, antibiotics, and toxic chemicals. It highlights the technical, scientific, regulatory, safety, and societal impacts of various sustainable biodegradation approaches. The book describes various sensors in environmental pollution monitoring and pollutant detection.

KEY FEATURES

• Provides a deep understanding of the use of sensors in environmental water monitoring and pollutant detection
• Covers exciting topics like biological upcycling of plastic wastes into value-added chemicals
• Presents future research needs on biodegradation and scientific challenges in the mitigation of environmental pollutants
• Brings out the latest themes, such as eco-design study of bio-nanomaterials, bio-nanofilters, and assessment for the treatment of emerging pollutants
• Reviews the biodegradation of toxicants to improve the quality of water and air and environmental sustainability

This book is meant for scientists, ecologists, microbiologists, industry experts, researchers, students, innovators involved in biotechnology research, and policymakers focused on bioremediation.
