Synergistic Approaches for Bioremediation of Environmental Pollutants: Recent Advances and Challenges focuses on the exploitation of various biological treatment technologies and their use to treat toxic contaminants present in industrial effluent and in restoring contaminated sites, which lacks in a more comprehensive manner in existing titles on similar topics available on the global market. The book comprises advanced biotechnologies and updated information, along with sustainable waste management developments and future directions for researchers and scientists working in the field of microbiology.
