Review on Bioremediation: A Tool to Resurrect the Polluted Rivers

Abstract

The term bioremediation describes biological machinery of recycling wastes to make them harmless and useful to some extent. Bioremediation is the most proficient tool to manage the polluted environment and recover contaminated river water. Bioremediation is very much involved in the degradation, eradication, restriction, or reclamation varied chemical and physical hazardous substances from the nearby with the action of all-inclusive microorganisms. The fundamental principle of bioremediation is disintegrating and transmuting pollutants such as hydrocarbons, oil, heavy metal, pesticides and so on. Different microbes like aerobic, anaerobic, fungi and algae are incorporated in bioremediation process. At present, several methods and approaches like bio stimulation, bio augmentation, and monitoring natural recovery are common and functional in different sites around the world for treating contaminated river water. However, all bioremediation procedures it has its own pros and cons due to its own unambiguous application. Above all, utilization of bioremediation paving a minimal inconsiderably contaminated, healthy as well as safe and sound future.
