Advance Applications of Bioremediation and its Impact on Human and Environmental Health
Subscribe/Renew Journal
Bioremediation is an effective innovative technology, in the field of biotechnology for the treatment of a wide variety of contaminants. It is a tool box for wider application in the area of environmental protection. Bioremediation, provides an opportunity to solve the problem in the field of solid waste by detoxifying effluents/hazardous wastes. Due to its comparatively low cost and environmental impact, it offers attractive and more conventional clean-up technologies. Large amounts of toxic waste have been dispersed in thousands of contaminated sites spread across our nation. Thus, every one of us exposed the contamination from past and present industrial practices, emissions in natural resources (air, water and soil) even in the most remote regions. The toxic waste is creating the risk for human and environmental health and there are evidence that this cocktail of pollutants create a major contribution to the global epidemic of cancer and other degenerative diseases. Now the challenge is to develop innovative and cost-effective solutions to decontaminate polluted environments.
