Abstract

Wastewater treatment using biotechnological approaches provides environmentally friendly ways of treating industrial effluents for pollution control and resource realization. The capability of microbial consortia, enzymatic machinery and genetically modified microorganisms to metabolize high molecular weight compounds including heavy metals, synthetic chemicals and toxic organic substrates outlines this approach. However, there are issues with the concept being implemented such as operation problems, problems with scalability, and the question of exactly how friendly genetically modified species are to the environment. The new technologies include metagenomics, synthetic biology, and hybrid systems of bio and physical treatment that generally improve treatment efficacy and pollutant removal.
