| Popis: |
The environment is vital to human life, and organisms require it to survive. The sustainability of the physical environment indicates to what extent a society is prosperous and whether everyone is well off. The disposal of hazardous substances is a major challenge every day. The best way to sustain the environment is to minimize waste generation and maintain a harmonious balance between esthetics and health. Biological aspects of environmental sustainability are explored through a review of available biotechnological tools. Environmental biotechnology is enabling major advances in remediation technologies that will assist in minimizing the potential release of waste from industrial facilities. This technology will also produce products useful in efforts to prevent the release of waste. Biotechnology offers tremendous potential to transform harmful waste and pollutants into useful by-products using microbial communities or just by allowing microbes and plants to degrade these wastes as harmless metabolites. |
