Microbial Engines for the Circular Economy
Microbial Engines for the Circular Economy
The book explores cutting edge technologies employing microbial bioprocesses to bring more sustainable processes into focus. Starting from a general overview of the role of microorganisms in a circular economy, it continues to cover the use of microbial metabolism to create value-added chemicals from waste products, bioremediation, soil enrichment, water treatment as well as the production of pharmaceuticals.
