Researchers have identified a bacteria strain capable of breaking down and transforming some of the most stubborn forever ...

A team has identified a strain of bacteria that can break down and transform at least three types of PFAS, and, perhaps even more crucially, some of the toxic byproducts of the bond-breaking process.

A University at Buffalo study reveals that a strain isolated from contaminated soil can break down the strong carbon-fluorine ...

Biotechnology also plays an important role in recovering critical raw materials (CRMs) from electronic waste and accelerating and enhancing plastic biodegradation in different environmental conditions ...

a process called bioaugmentation. “In wastewater- activated sludge systems, you could accelerate removal of undesired compounds by adding a specific strain to the existing bacterial consortium ...

depending on whether the process is aerobic or anaerobic. Very few identified and classified microorganisms can degrade plastics, prompting the emergence of bioaugmentation as a potential solution ...

Bioaugmentation: The addition of specific ... and have systems in place to gain human feedback on the overall quality of the process. We however cannot guarantee the accuracy of every summary ...
