Abstract
Anthropogenic events have caused environment all around the world to
deteriorate, rendering them unsuited for the existence of indigenous biological species.
Over the last few decades, environmental contamination seems to have been a
prominent subject of concern, affecting the wellbeing of people. The environments
have been gravely damaged by excessive industrialization, inappropriate farming
techniques, and unregulated release of contaminants into soil and aquatic bodies. As a
result, there has been poor utilization of natural resources, increase in deforestation, a
decline of flora and fauna, drinking water scarcity, and significant economic losses
which are challenging. The need to develop innovative, eco-friendly, low-cost, and
much more effective environmental remediation technologies emerged as a result of
environmental pollution. Microbes are well recognised for their propensity to degrade
and absorb a broad range of organic chemicals and are now utilized to clean up
environmental pollution through the process of 'bioremediation'. The bioremediation
process involves a variety of microorganisms that help in degradation, eradication,
immobilization, or detoxification of different chemical pollutants from the
environment. Bioremediation methods are widely used and are still increasing at an
enormous speed nowadays. Entrepreneurship can be developed by commercializing
bioremediation in saving the environment.
