Abstract

The emerging role of bacteria in the field of bioremediation eco- technology with countless new genes and biochemical pathways using antagonistic compounds and other useful molecules has generated new interest in them. After testing all the physical, chemical and biological means of bioremediation it has been found that for management of contaminated waters the best option is microbiological treatment which is more efficient economically and consumes less energy. “In situ” bioremediation is the cleanup approach where the dissolved and absorbed contaminants are in contact with microorganisms. The microorganisms act well only when the waste material helps them to generate energy and nutrients to build up more cells. Lack of biodegradation capacity of native microorganisms can be overcome by addition of selective substrates during. Insitu bio remediation or manipulate the native microorganisms for efficient and speedy biodegradation.
