Nanobiotechnology for Bioremediation: Fundamentals and Mechanisms

Nanomaterials are effective in combatting pollution challenges. Nanobiotechnology for Bioremediation: Fundamentals and Mechanisms provides detailed information on nanomaterial application for the bioremediation of a heavily contaminated environment.Relevant information has been provided on the application of nanofibers, nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI), nanocomposites, carbon nanotubes for rejuvenation of a heavy environment from different pollutants, such as heavy metals, chlorinated compounds, organic compounds, polyaromatic hydrocarbon, and hydrocarbons. The book explores the application of nanomaterials, as a sustainable green solution, which help to prevent various high levels of contamination in the environment. Each chapter addresses the application of nanomaterials as a sustainable tool for managing innumerable environmental challenges. This helps readers to translate their research findings into sustainable innovations to resolve their immediate environmental challenges.
