Contents:
1 Environmental pollutants: metal(loid)s and radionuclides -- 2 Environmental pollutants: organic and emerging contaminants -- 3 Biosorption, Bioaccumulation And Biodegradation - A Sustainable Approach For Management Of Environmental Contaminants -- 4 Bioremediation technologies for the treatment of water contaminated by organic and inorganic contaminants -- 5 Biological treatment of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and odorous compounds -- 6 Biological treatment of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) -- 7 Biological Treatment Of Pharmaceuticals And Personal Care Products (Ppcps) -- 8 Genetic engineering strategies and degradation of pollutants using genetically engineered microbes (GEMs) -- 9 Biogenic synthesis of nanoparticles and its application in wastewater treatment -- 10 BioTechnological approach for treatment of sludge from municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plant -- 11 Microwave Assisted Chemically Modified Biochar ForThe Sequestration Of Emerging Contaminants.
Summary: This book covers broader application of biotechnology for the protection of environment through different bioremediation and biodegradation techniques developed for removal of environmental contaminants including the recently discovered contaminants. The book offers a comprehensive overview of environmental pollutants including their fate, behavior, environmental and associated health risks. It is useful reading material for postgraduate and graduate students of environmental biotechnology, environmental microbiology and ecology. Young researchers also find the chapters useful understanding the latest developments.
