| Publisher Description: During the past decades, the prevention of soil pollution and cleanup of contaminated soils have become a world-wide environmental priority. The goal of soil bioremediation is not only to enhance the timely degradation, transformation, remediation, or detoxification of these pollutants by biological means, but also to protect soil quality. In order to develop suitable biotechnological methods to remediate these pollutants, it is necessary to understand the hazards they present and the subsequent fate of these materials in the environment. This book provides a comprehensive review of the scientific and the technological aspects of soil bioremediation. It will serve as a valuable reference for educators and practitioners. |
