Authored by Anju Malik, this book is a compilation of seventeen chapters that provide an in-depth look at the latest bioremediation approaches used for sustainable environmental cleanup. It covers a wide range of environmental pollutants, including metal(loid)s, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, dyes, pesticides, petroleum hydrocarbons, and more.

The book highlights the use of various organisms such as bacteria, fungi, algae, higher plants, and novel materials like biohybrids, nano-biomaterials, and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) for environmental cleanup. It delves into different bioremediation strategies including biosorption, bioprecipitation, bioaccumulation, biodegradation, and biotransformation, with a focus on sustainable environmental cleanup.

Contributions from eminent researchers from around the world, including Argentina, Canada, Germany, India, Pakistan, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America, make this book a valuable resource for those interested in environmental science and sustainability.
