Abstract

Environmental pollution is an issue of immense concern for our earth’s ecosystem. Use of any natural/man-made resources at a higher rate causes toxicity and can result in pollution. It decreases the environmental quality and increases the threats to life support systems. Bioremediation is a process to remediate or to degrade these toxic compounds into nontoxic compounds by using biological agents. It is an economical and eco-friendly clean-up strategy. There are various technologies used under bioremediation process like bioaugmentation, biostimulation, bioventing, bioleaching, and phytoremediation. Although they are environmentally safe, they are much time consuming, costly, and require huge amount of biological agent. Thus, the use of nanotechnology not only reduces the time and cost but also increases the efficiency of biological agent even when used in less amount. It involves the production and characterization of particle by controlling their shape and size at nanoscale. Nanobioremediation involves the use of nanomaterial to degrade toxic compounds either ex situ or in situ. Synthesis of intra-/extracellular nanoparticle by using microbes can be a novel and eco-friendly approach in the area of bioremediation. In this chapter, we discuss the use of various nanotechnologies in bioremediation of toxic compounds that persist in the environment.
