Biotechnology of Metals

Principles, Recovery Methods and Environmental Concerns

About this book

Biotechnology of Metals: Principles, Recovery Methods and Environmental Concerns deals with all aspects of metal biotechnology in different areas, such as biogenesis, biomaterials, biomimetic strategies, biohydrometallurgy, mineral biobeneficiation, electrobioleaching, microbial corrosion, human implants, concrete biocorrosion, microbiology of environment pollution, and bioremediation. As the technology of this interdisciplinary science has diversified over the last five years, this book provides a valuable source for scientists and students in a number of disciplines, including geology, chemistry, metallurgy, microbiology, chemical engineering, environment, civil engineering, and biomedical engineering.- Offers comprehensive coverage of an interdisciplinary subject- Outlines the role of microbiology and biotechnology in mining, metallurgy, waste disposal and environmental control- Covers new topics, such as biogenesis, biomaterials processing, the role of micro-organisms in causing corrosion, and much more- Presents scientifically illustrated experimental research methods in metals biotechnology
