Bioremediation: Recent Advancements and Limitations
Bioremediation is a process that uses living organisms, mostly naturally occurring microorganisms, to degrade, detoxify, and/or transform contaminants from wastewater and contaminated soils. The technology is considered as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly approach, and has been used to decontaminate different kinds of contaminants, such as toxic heavy metals and organic compounds. With emphasis on biodegradation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), one of the most common contaminants that occur both in developed and developing countries, this paper overviews some recent advancements and limitations associated with biodegradation. The most significant advancements include biodegradation of multiple contaminants and understanding of microbial process including the use of next-generation sequencing (NGS), and stable-isotope probing (SIP) techniques to identify functional microbial species. The limitations and future challenges include, but not limited to selecting and supplying stimulating materials, and promoting contact between contaminants, microorganisms, and stimulating materials in engineering practice.
