Invest in Nano-Bioremediation for Wastewater Treatment to explore cutting-edge techniques that combine nanotechnology and bioremediation, equipping you with innovative solutions and expert insights needed to tackle global environmental pollution challenges effectively.

The coupling of nanotechnology and bioremediation techniques holds great promise for addressing environmental pollution and contamination on a global scale. The process of bioremediation uses living organisms, such as bacteria, fungi, or plants, to degrade or detoxify pollutants in the environment. Nanotechnology involves manipulating materials at the nanoscale, typically at the scale of individual atoms and molecules, to create novel properties and functionalities. Today, research is focused on exploring the combined potential of nanomaterials and bioremediation for treating pollutants.

Nano-Bioremediation for Wastewater Treatment will serve as a premier guide for nanotechnology in this field, providing information regarding the various challenges that arise from the coupling of nanotechnology and bioremediation techniques. Since very limited literature is available on this subject, the editors have compiled all the current assays and techniques that provide insights into this topic. This book will also cover different fabrication methods and methods for decorating microbial cells on the surface of nanomaterials, which is a key factor for synthesizing microbial conjugation, as well as prototype designing and integrating developed materials into water purification systems. Unlock the potential of cutting-edge nano-bioremediation techniques for wastewater treatment, with practical applications, expert insights, and sustainable solutions that set you apart in the field.

Audience

Environmental engineers, chemists, biotechnologists, microbiologists, nanotechnologists, environmental consultants, researchers, academics, and policymakers focused on developing and implementing innovative solutions for wastewater treatment and environmental remediation.
