Genomics Approach to Bioremediation

Provides insights into the various aspects of microbial genomics and biotechnology for environmental cleanup

In recent years, the application of genomics to biodegradation and bioremediation research has led to a better understanding of the metabolic capabilities of microorganisms, their interactions with hazardous and toxic chemical compounds, and their adaptability to changing environmental conditions.

Genomics Approach to Bioremediation: Principles, Tools, and Emerging Technologies provides comprehensive and up-to-date information on cutting-edge technologies and approaches in bioremediation and biodegradation of environmental pollutants. Edited by prominent researchers in the field, this authoritative reference examines advanced genomics technologies, next-generation sequencing (NGS), and state-of-the-art bioinformatics tools while offering valuable insights into the unique functional attributes of different microbial communities and their impact on the removal of chemical contaminants.

Each chapter includes numerous high-quality illustrations, detailed tables, extensive references, and step-by-step descriptions of various microbial metabolic pathways of degradation and biotransformation of environments containing various inorganic, metallic, organometallic, and organic hydrocarbon contaminants.

? Describes methodologies and underlying theory for the remediation, detoxification, and

degradation of contaminated environments

? Covers new genomics technologies that address nutrient removal, resource recovery, and

other major trends in environmental cleanup

? Highlights recent advances in microbial biotechnological approaches including the latest

description of the relationship between microbes and the environment focusing on their impact

on ecosystem services.

? Offers perspectives on energy saving, production, sustainability, and community involvement

? Discusses current challenges and future directions in the field of bioremediation

Genomics Approach to Bioremediation: Principles, Tools, and Emerging Technologies is an essential resource for biochemical and environmental engineers, environmental microbiologists, academic researchers, process and treatment plant managers, policymakers, and industry professionals working in the areas of microbial degradation, bioremediation, and phytoremediation.

Vineet Kumar is currently a National Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Microbiology, School of Life Sciences at the Central University of Rajasthan, Rajasthan, India. He got his M.Sc. (2008) and M.Phil. (2012) in Microbiology at Ch. Charan Singh University, Meerut, India. Subsequently, he earned his Ph.D. (2018) in Environmental Microbiology from Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar (A Central) University, Lucknow, India, focusing on the treatment of distillery effluent in two step treatment system, towards environmental sustainability. Sunil Kumar is a well-rounded researcher with more than 22 years of experience in leading, supervising, and undertaking research in the broader field of Environmental Engineering and Science with a focus on Solid and Hazardous Waste Management. Dr. Kumar is a graduate in Environmental Engineering and Management from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India. He completed his Ph. D. in Environmental Engineering from Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India. His primary area of expertise is solid waste management (Municipal Solid Waste, Electronic waste etc.) over a wide range of environmental topics including contaminated sites, EIA, and wastewater treatment. Pradeep Verma is working as Professor in the Department of Microbiology, School of Life Sciences at Central University of Rajasthan, Rajasthan, India. He is a well-rounded researcher with more than 21 years of experience in leading, supervising, and undertaking research in the broader field of bioprocess and bioenergy production from lignocellulosic waste with a focus on waste management. He earned his PhD in Microbiology from Sardar Patel University Gujarat, India in 2002. His research area of expertise involves microbial diversity, bioremediation, bioprocess development, lignocellulosic and algal biomass based biorefinery. Sartaj Ahmad Bhat is working as JSPS Postdoctoral Researcher at the River Basin Research Center, Gifu University, Japan. He received his Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences from Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar, India in 2017. His research interests focus on vermicomposting treatment of various solid wastes, especially for investigations on fate and behavior of emerging pollutants during biological treatment of organic wastes.
