Synopsis: This book concentrates on trends and recent developments in nano- and microbial agents and their usage in waste minimization and pollution mitigation through review-style chapters. Population growth and affiliated human activities harm the environment, leading to an escalating pollution crisis and necessitating the development of sustainable, green, eco-friendly technologies. Environmental research is expanding and thriving, concentrating on environmentally responsive approaches to combat xenobiotics, pollutants, and emerging contaminants discharged into the environment due to various human activities. Chemical and biological methods can facilitate using sustainable practices to reduce environmental pollutants. Alternative eco-friendly technologies involving nano- and microbial agents could be viable sources for environmental remediation.The encouraging findings of these research contributions could be incorporated into commercially available environmentally sustainable appliances. This book interests scientists, academics, and scholars seeking inspiration and direction for researching sustainable environmental applications.
