Description
In a world grappling with environmental degradation, climate change, and resource scarcity, biotechnology emerges as a powerful tool to foster sustainability. This book presents cutting-edge research and innovative applications of biotechnological solutions to address pressing environmental issues. This comprehensive volume brings together contributions from leading experts, covering a wide array of topics, including waste management, circular bioeconomy, microbial degradation of pollutants, bioenergy production, and climate change mitigation. With chapters on bioleaching, metagenomics, biosensors, and biodiversity conservation, the book highlights the transformative potential of biotechnology in creating a greener future.Key themes explored include: waste valorization and resource recovery through biotechnological interventions; sustainable energy solutions, including biofuels and optimized anaerobic digestion; microbial and biotechnological strategies for pollution control and ecosystem restoration; AI and machine learning applications in enhancing bioprocess efficiency; and policy and institutional frameworks to bridge the gap between research and real-world implementation.A vital resource for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners, this book underscores the role of biotechnology in building resilient and sustainable ecosystems. By integrating scientific innovation with environmental stewardship, this book paves the way for a cleaner, healthier planet.
