Microbial Degradation and Detoxification of Pollutants / / ed. by Maulin P. Shah.

This book explores how bioremediation biotechnology is used to remove pollutants in wastewater. Remediation of wastewater is important to ensure that pollutants generated in industry do not effect our environment negatively. Traditional wastewater remediation is not a sustainable process, however by...
