BOOK EXCERPT:
The introduction of emerging contaminants through anthropogenic activities and industrial discharges has raised significant public health concerns worldwide. Various techniques, including bioremediation, have been explored for their effectiveness in removing pollutants from water bodies and effluents. Microorganisms, particularly bacteria and fungi, have emerged as promising candidates for bioremediation due to their abundance, diversity, and ability to thrive under various conditions. Microbes and Enzymes for Water Treatment and Remediation covers a range of topics, from the role of microorganisms and enzymes in efficient pollutant removal to recent advances in microbial immobilization and enzymatic systems for enhanced wastewater treatment. The book provides up-to-date insights into the potential of microbial and enzyme-based processes for wastewater treatment, addressing challenges and limitations while offering alternative methods for effluent treatment and water reclamation. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding the interplay between microbial, biological, and chemical components in the remediation of toxic aqueous pollutants, aiding both researchers and industrialists in advancing environmental stewardship efforts. Offers comprehensive coverage of emerging contaminants and their impact on public health. Provides in-depth exploration of bioremediation techniques utilizing microbial and enzymatic pathways. Addresses the limitations and challenges of the existing microbial and enzyme-based processes for wastewater treatment.

BOOK EXCERPT:
The abundance of organic pollutants found in wastewater affect urban surface waters. Traditional wastewater management technologies focus on the removal of suspended solids, nutrients and bacteria, however, new pollutants such as synthetic or naturally occurring chemicals are often not monitored in the environment despite having the potential to enter the environment and cause adverse ecological and human health effects. Collectively referred to as "emerging contaminants," they are mostly derived from domestic activities and occur in trace concentrations ranging from pico to micrograms per liter. Environmental contaminants are resistant to conventional wastewater treatment processes and most of them remain unaffected, causing contamination of receiving water. This in turn leads to the need for advanced wastewater treatment processes capable of removing environmental contaminants to ensure safe fresh water sources. This book provides an up-to-date overview of the current bioremediation strategies, including their limitations, challenges and their potential application to remove environmental pollutants. It also introduces the latest trends and advances in environmental bioremediation, and presents the state-of-the-art in biological and chemical wastewater treatment processes. As such, it will appeal to researchers and policy-makers, as well as undergraduate and graduate environmental sciences students.

BOOK EXCERPT:
The pollution of soil and groundwater by heavy metals and other chemicals is becoming a serious issue in many countries. However, the current bioremediation processes do not often achieve sufficient remediation, and more effective processes are desired. This book deals with advances in the bioremediation of polluted soil and groundwater. In the former chapters of this book, respected researchers in this field describe how the optimization of microorganisms, enzymes, absorbents, additives and injection procedures can help to realize excellent bioremediation. In the latter chapters, other researchers introduce bioremediation processes that have been performed in the field and novel bioremediation processes. Thus, the readers will be able to obtain new ideas about effective bioremediation as well as important information about recent advances in bioremediation.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Biofilms represent the natural living style of microbial communities and play a pivotal role in biogeochemical cycles and natural attenuation. Biofilms can be engineered for biodegradation and biotransformation of organic and inorganic contaminants, for both in situ bioremediation and ex situ treatment in bioreactors. This book focuses on microbial biofilms and their potential technological applications for sustainable development. It covers recent advances in biofilm technologies for contaminant remediation coupled to recovery of resources and serves as a complete reference on the science and technology behind biofilm mediated bioremediation and wastewater treatment.
