Environmental Biotechnology: Principles and Applications


Overview

Biotechnology offers a ""natural"" way of addressing environmental problems, ranging from identification of biohazards to bioremediation techniques for industrial, agricultural and municipal effluents and residues. Biotechnology is also a crucial element in the paradigm of ""sustainable development"". This collection of 66 papers, by authors from 20 countries spanning 4 continents, addresses many of these issues. The material presented should interest scientists, engineers, and others in industry, government and academia. It incorporates both introductory and advanced aspects of the subject matter, which includes water, air and soil treatment, biosensor and biomonitoring technology, genetic engineering of microorganisms, and policy issues in applying biotechnology to environmental problems. The papers present a variety of aspects ranging from current research, to examples of applications of these technologies.
