Microbial bioremediation methods typically use consortia of wild-type bacterial strains, yet these organisms demonstrate limited capacity to degrade complex pollutant mixtures. Elevated salinity ...

“A 50 percent reduction in soil contaminants after three months of bioremediation does seem possible,” says Mia Maltz, a soil microbial ecologist at the University of Connecticut. Maltz served ...

Mumbai: Following queries raised by prospective bidders concerning the tender for the bioremediation of 185 lakh tons of legacy waste at the Deonar landfill, the BMC is expected to extend the bid ...

Bioremediation offers a more equitable, cost-effective, and environmentally sound alternative by using living organisms like fungi, bacteria, and plants to detoxify contaminated soil and groundwater ...

Remediation of polluted sites using microbial process (bioremediation) has proven effective and reliable due to its eco-friendly features. Bioremediation can either be carried out ex situ or in situ, ...

Jeshuah Gilroy’s research examines a process called bioremediation – using a unique mix of bacteria and fungi to breakdown quinoline, a toxic industrial pollutant. The carcinogenic compound poses ...

Some bacteria eat sugar. Some survive in boiling acid. And now, apparently, some breathe electricity like they’re powering tiny iPhones in their ribosomes. But under the right conditions, it turns out ...

A growing body of scientific work is revealing a remarkable feature of certain microbes. They can “breathe” in a way that produces electricity instead of relying on oxygen, suggesting unusual survival ...

You will be redirected to our submission process. In the field of environmental biotechnology, the use of microbial bioremediation has emerged as a promising approach to address oil contamination in ...
