Biotechnological strategies for effective remediation of polluted soils[electronic resource] /by Bhupendra Koul, Pooja Taak. - Singapore :Springer Singapore :2018. - xvii, 240 p. :ill. (some col.), digital ;24 cm.

Module 1_Soil pollution: causes and consequences -- Module 2_Ex situ soil remediation strategies -- Module 3_In situ soil remediation strategies -- Module 4_Chemical methods -- Module 5_Biochar and soil remediation -- Module 6_Soil remediation through microbes -- Module 7_Soil remediation through algae, plants and animals -- Module 8_Nanobioremediation -- Module 9_Case studies and future prospects.

This book presents a comprehensive collection of various in situ and ex-situ soil remediation regimes that employ natural or genetically modified microbes, plants, and animals for the biodegradation of toxic compounds or hazardous waste into simpler non-toxic products. These techniques are demonstrated to be functionally effective in connection with physical, chemical, and biological strategies. Soil and water contamination through heavy metals, hydrocarbons and radioactive wastes is of global concern, as these factors have cumulative effects on the environment and human health through food-chain contamination. The book discusses the utilization of algae, plants, plant-associated bacteria, fungi (endophytic or rhizospheric) and certain lower animals for the sustainable bioremediation of organic and inorganic pollutants. In addition, it explores a number of more recent techniques like biochar and biofilms for carbon sequestration, soil conditioning and remediation, and water remediation. It highlights a number of recent advances in nanobioremediation, an emerging technology based on biosynthetic nanoparticles. Lastly, it presents illustrative case studies and highlights the successful treatment of polluted soils by means of these strategies.
