Metagenomics to Bioremediation: Applications, Cutting Edge Tools, and Future Outlook provides detailed insight into metagenomics approaches to bioremediation in a comprehensive manner, thus enabling the analysis of microbial behavior at a community level under different environmental stresses during degradation and detoxification of environmental pollutants. The book summarizes each and all aspects of metagenomics applications to bioremediation, helping readers overcome the lack of updated information on advancement in microbial ecology dealing with pollution abatement. Users will find insight not only on the fundamentals of metagenomics and bioremediation, but also on recent trends and future expectations. This book will appeal to readers from diverse backgrounds in biology, chemistry and life sciences. - Reviews recently developed metagenomics approaches/strategies/ technologies to solve five major trends in environmental clean-up, including nutrient removal and resource recovery, organometallic compounds detoxification, energy-saving and production, sustainability and community involvement - Compiles authoritative information on recent advances in microbial biotechnological approaches, including the latest descriptions of the relationship between microbes and the environment - Describes the knowledge gaps and future directions in the field of bioremediation of environmental contaminants - Covers underlying microbial mechanisms with metabolic pathways for degradation and detoxification of emerging organic and inorganic contaminants discharged in environment
