Overview

Microbial Metagenomics in Effluent Treatment Plant introduces a metagenomic approach characterizing microbial communities?in industrial wastewater treatment, providing an overall picture of metagenomics, its application, processes, and future prospects in the field of bioremediation. It also discusses culture-dependent methods, culture-independent methods, and?enzymatic methods?used to estimate bacterial diversity to monitor temporal and spatial changes in bacterial communities. In addition, a metagenomic approach id discussed to characterize the microbial communities in industrial wastewater treatment. Researchers, scientists, professors, and students in environmental engineering, applied microbiology, and water treatment will find this book helpful in understanding the importance and role of metagenomics in biogeochemical cycles, degradation, and detoxification of environmental pollutants.
