Eliminate Marine Pollution with Bioremediation, a Creative and Effective Cleaning Method

Abstract

Servio Tulio Cassini

The development and promotion of novel and environmentally friendly technologies are necessary to address the fairly alarming and timely issue of aquatic environmental pollution. Water pollution includes a variety of typical pollutants that can enter aquatic ecosystems by a number of different paths, including wastewater, the atmosphere, ship emissions, and a number of other sources. The majority of these harmful substances are ingested by aquatic species, where they then bioaccumulate in tissues and go up the food chain in a process called biomagnification. These methods have the potential to have negative effects on natural ecosystem biochemical processes and organism physiology, which could have an indirect negative impact on human health.
