Biodegradation: Involved Microorganisms and Genetically Engineered Microorganisms
Biodegradation is defined as the biologically catalyzed reduction in complexity of chemical compounds [1]. Indeed, biodegradation is the process by which organic substances are broken down into smaller compounds by living microbial organisms [2]. When biodegradation is complete, the process is called "mineralization". However, in most cases the term biodegra‐ dation is generally used to describ...
متن کاملHeavy Metal Removal Using Dithiocarbamates
ajor emphasis is placed today on treating plating solutions and rinsewater to reduce the concentration of toxic metals to below established limits prior to discharge or water reuse. Available technology is adequate for partial treatment of most wastewater; however, new technology is needed to scavenge heavy metals from complexed or chelated compounds in rinsewater. Several report^^-'^ from this...
متن کاملRemoval of heavy metal (copper) using Microalgae (Spirulinaplatensis) by Taguchi Method
Environmental pollution by heavy metals is one of the main problems in the environment. Biosorption, is inactivated or live and dead biomass is used for the removal of heavy metals. In this study, a micro alga (Cyanobacteria) Spirulina platensis was used as adsorbents for the remediation of copperfrom aqueous solution.The purpose of this research is to study the possibility or impossibility of...
متن کاملA Review on Use of Genetically Engineered Microorganisms for Bioremediation of Environmental Pollutants and Heavy Metals
Bioremediation refers to the use of organisms to remove environmental pollutants. Besides identifying different new plasmids capable of degrading environmental pollutants, many attempts have been taken by the genetic engineers to enhance the bioremediation potential of different microorganisms. Escherichia coli was engineered to convert chlorinated solvents such as trichloro ethylene and the hi...
