Biotechnology impinges on everyone's lives. It is one of the major technologies of the twenty-first century with wide-ranging, multidisciplinary activities ranging from small entities of life to the application, and production of goods. Environmental biotechnology is a huge and fast growing field with increasing relevance for a sustainable development through protection of environment to production of biomaterials. It continues to revolutionize the understanding of basic life sustaining processes in the environment, identification and exploitation of the molecules, and its use to provide clean technologies and to deal with environmental problems. This book provides an overview of basic processes of the environment, perturbations in the environment due to natural and human activities and use of biotechnological principles for remediation for sustainable development of the environment.

"Environmental Biotechnology" bietet dem Leser einen vertiefenden Einblick in die komplexen Prozesse umweltbiotechnologischer Verfahren und enthält die dazu einschlägigen biologischen, chemischen und ingenieurwissenschaftlichen Grundlagen für die Fortentwicklung wirkungsvoller Verfahren. Reinhaltung, Schutz und Säuberung von Wasser, Boden und Luft stellen eine große Herausforderung vor allem in den stark industrialisierten Ländern dar. Das Buch umfasst alle vier großen Gebiete der Umweltbiotechnologie: Wastewater Treatment, Soil Treatment, Solid Waste Treatment, Waste Gas Treatment. Jedem dieser vier Bereiche sind umfassende Kapitel gewidmet, die sich sowohl mit den mikrobiologischen als auch mit verfahrenstechnischen Aspekten beschäftigen. Mit diesem Buch hält der Leser in konzentrierter Form das in den höchst erfolgreichen Bänden 11a bis 11c der "Biotechnology"-Reihe zusammengetragene Wissen in Händen.
Environmental Biotechnology
The application of biologically-engineered solutions toenvironmental problems has become far more readily acceptable andwidely understood. However there remains some uncertainty amongstpractitioners regarding how and where the microscopic, functionallevel fits into the macroscopic, practical applications. It isprecisely this gap which the book sets out to fill. Dividing the topic into logical strands covering pollution,waste and manufacturing, the book examines the potential forbiotechnological interventions and current industrial practice,with the underpinning microbial techniques and methods described,in context, against this background. Each chapter is supported by located case studies from a rangeof industries and countries to provide readers with an overview ofthe range of applications for biotechnology. Essential reading for undergraduates and Masters studentstaking modules in Biotechnology or Pollution Control as part ofEnvironmental Science, Environmental Management or EnvironmentalBiology programmes. It is also suitable for professionals involvedwith water, waste management and pollution control.
