Description
Summary:Due to the widespread adoption of conventional approaches for the remediation of contaminated soils, these techniques have become more well-known in the literature. However, these methods have both advantages and disadvantages. Integrating traditional degradation technologies with Nano-technology might be the right solution for removing toxicants from the environment to overcome these problems. Nano bioremediation is a new technique that has gained prominence in recent years among many researchers worldwide. These techniques aim to remove the contaminants’ concentration and minimize their impacts on the environment. The integrated approaches benefit bioremediation and nanotechnology to remove the pollutants more efficiently within less time in an eco-friendly manner than individual processes. The current review provides insights into nanotechnology and different kinds of nanomaterials that have been reported in eliminating pollutants from the environment. Further, the mechanism and challenges with nano bioremediation were explained in detail.
