Bioremediation

Authors(1) :-Dr. Anita Lubana

Environmental pollution has been on the rise at alarming rate during the past few decades. Reason being unsafe agricultural practices, population blast and rapid industrialization. However, in recent times awareness to curb the environmental pollution has increased and so has the research, adoption and implementation of the various methods to clearly cut or reduce the stress of environmental pollution and to have a sustainable resource for the future of the mankind. The most of the culprit here is the increase in the population and the increase in demand due to that. Industries work day in and day out to supply the increased demand, increasing the pressure on the environment all over the globe. Whether they be industrial waste or oil spills bioremediation is the best and low-cost option available for the sustentation. In this paper we will review the term bioremediation in general, the types and the concerns, the various processes of Bioremediation, challenges and future of the Bioremediation, forming a conclusion to what’s coming ahead in the future.
