Introduction Polluted soil resulting from industrial or agricultural processes poses serious health hazards to humans and animals and thus can have damaging consequences on the ecosystems by making land inappropriate for cultivation and other fiscal purposes. Various industries such as carpet, textile, and petrochemical production create intensive problems in thenaturalenvironmentbydisposingtoxicwastesononehandandgeneratingahugequan- tity of waste, oily sludge, and petroleum waste enriched soil on the other hand, which constitutes a major confront for hazardous waste management (Farhadian et al., 2008).

Bioremediation:asustainableapproachformanagementofenvironmentalcontaminants Apart from this, oil shipping is also one of the key causes of environmental contamination where the land and water gets polluted because of the oil spill, ship breakage, and seepage of oil pipelines. Theeconomicallyviableandenvironmentallyfeasiblemanagementofindustrialsludgeis amajorconcernworldwide.Fordisposalofindustrialsludge,globallyadoptedtechnologies comprise of landfilling, high-temperature drying, sludge spreading on land surface, lime added stabilization, burning, and composting. Because of excessive expenditure on sludge management, the majority of textile industries in India generally released their wastewater effluents in the farming fields, open dumps, fallow land, and ineffectively controlledsanitarylandfillsandalongsidetherailwaytracks.Itfurthercontaminatesground- water causing serious human health hazards. Meanwhile, low availability of landfill area, rigorousnationalwastesdiscardingpolicy,andlocalpeopleawarenesshavecausedlandfill- ing and land spreading highly costly and impractical. The sludge management practices in most of the developing countries are not well developed. Currently, several factories and municipalities are working on environment-friendly and low-cost sludge treatment practices.Thus,itisimperativetomitigatetoxicenvironmentalcontaminantsforsustainable development (Kümmerer et al., 2019). A number of physical and chemical methods are currently being employed at large scale for municipal wastewater management chiefly based on sewage treatment plants (STPs). Inadditiontobuildingexpenses,upholdingtroublesintreatmentplantshasraisedthequery of sustainability. Furthermore, surplus sewage sludge formed by these treatment plants has posed more severe confines on release during the previous few decades (Vigueros and Camperos, 2002). Several developing countries cannot meet the expense of construction of STPs,necessitatingthedevelopmentofsomeeco-friendlyandeconomicallyfeasiblemachin- ery for in situ wastewater management. Under such critical conditions, a few eco-friendly techniques can resolve the limitations linked with secure and economically efficient wastewater management machinery. Bioremediation is an emerging and innovative technology because of its economic feasibility, enhanced competence, and natural environment friendliness. The technology uses various eco-friendly microbial processes to handle the ever-rising environmental pollution problem.Insuchapproaches,microbesadjustthemselvesagainstnoxiouswastesandenviron- mentallyadaptedmicrobialstrainsgrownaturally,whichsubsequentlyconvertawidevariety of toxic chemicals into nontoxic forms. The microbial degradation of xenobiotics is based on enzyme activities. It further includes rhizoremediation, phytoremediation (McCutcheon and Jørgensen, 2008; Chang et al., 2009), and vermicomposting depending on the biological activities involved. Phytoremediation is based on plant-assisted extenuation of pollutant concentrations at the contaminated sites, whereas rhizoremediation includes the elimination ofspecificpollutantsfromimpuresitesbythemutualinterfaceofplantrootsandappropriate microbial flora (Rajkumar et al., 2012). Because bioremediation appears to be a promising substitute to conventional cleanup machinery, extensive research is being carried out in this field.Vermicompostingandvermifiltrationarenaturalwastemanagementproceduresrelying on the utilization of worms to change organic wastes to form soil-enriching compounds (Vettori et al., 2012). Domestic wastewater and industrial sludge management can be accom- plished through these processes in a sustainable way (Benitez et al., 2002). In addition, a substantial decrease in pathogens has been observed up to the end-products level.Therefore, 3 2.

Biological methods have been reviewed and acknowledged for remediation of environmental pollutant. In this chapter, we have tried to focusontheapplicationofbiologicalmethodswhichwereusedforeffectivewastetreatment. Several different strategies of bioremediation have also been discussed in later sections. 2. Application of bioremediation for environmental pollutants cleanup In previous decades, rapid industrialization, urbanization, and indiscriminate resource utilization by ever-increasing human population have increased the contamination of atmo- sphere,landsurfaces,andgroundandsurfacewaters.Thewide-scaledegradationofnatural resources constitutes a major threat to public health around the globe. Majority of contami- nantsaffecting soil and water system are heavy metals, pesticides, petroleumhydrocarbons, and large amountof toxic industrialeffluents. These xenobiotics of anthropogenic originare recalcitrant in nature. In the current scenario, restoration of degraded land, water, and soil system is only possiblebysustainableandeco-friendlyprocesses.Amongthevariousrecentprocessesbeing used for the abatement of environmental pollution, bioremediation is recognized as an emerging methodology for the restoration of polluted environments. However, its ground levelapplicabilityisrestrictedbecauseofdifferentclimaticfactors.Variousmicrobesdegrade recalcitrant pollutants under aerobic or anaerobic conditions through complete mineraliza- tion or cometabolism by using pollutants as their carbon sources. Bacteria and fungi have been reported as favorable and potential candidates for both in situ and ex situ degradation of organicpollutants present atcontaminated sites.Furthermore, themicrobes can begenet- ically engineered for efficient degradation of environmental contaminants. Nevertheless, extensive political and ethical concern restricts the wide-scale applicability of genetically engineered organisms. The current biotechnological progress such as the use of proficient microbial consortia, indigenous microbes, application of specific enzymes, biosurfactant, and rhizoremediation are the new prospects in bioremediation technology. A schematic representation of various methods and techniques applied for bioremediation of different inorganic and organic contaminants has been illustrated in Fig. 1.1. 2.1 Bioremediation strategy for hydrocarbon contaminated water and soil Bioremediationofhydrocarbonpollutedsoilsandgroundwaterusingbacteriahasgained immense consideration recently. Bacteria can degrade a large number of toxic hydrocarbons underbothaerobicandanaerobiccircumstances.Benzene,toluene,ethylbenzene,andxylene (BTEX) compounds are typical examples of hydrocarbons and are carcinogenic (de Graaff et al., 2011) and neurotoxic in nature. Moreover, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) classifiedthesehydrocarbonsasprioritypollutantsrequiringstrictregulation.Whenorganic contaminants such as BTEX are released into the environment (Jin et al., 2013), the function and structure of the microbial communities are generally affected. Although significant researches on biodegradation of BTEX components by bacteria (Li et al., 2012) have been reported, however, most of the studies have concentrated on the degradation of only one or two components by bacterial isolate (Table 1.1). Furthermore, it is recognized that the 4 1.
