Microbial Processes in Environmental Engineering

From Theory to Practice

About this book

Microbial Processes in Environmental Engineering explores the latest advances in microbial biotechnology and environmental engineering. Bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and practical applications, the book illustrates how microbial processes can be effectively utilised in pollution control, ecosystem restoration and resource recovery.

The chapters provide clear explanations of microbial mechanisms, biochemical pathways, and environmental factors influencing microbial activity, and cover essential topics such as microbial ecology, metabolism, biodegradation and bioremediation.

Key features include:

  • applications across a range of environmental challenges, including water pollution, wastewater treatment and soil remediation
  • innovative approaches to sustainable energy production, including microbial fuel cells and biogas production
  • case studies in a variety of sectors providing concrete examples of successful microbial interventions
  • practical techniques for bioaugmentation and biostimulation, illustrating how these technologies can enhance microbial activity for effective bioremediation
  • insights into the latest advancements and future trends, including developments in pollutant degradation and resource recovery.

Microbial Processes in Environmental Engineering is an essential resource for researchers, practitioners and students in environmental engineering seeking to contribute to environmental sustainability through microbial applications.
