This comprehensive book delves into the realm of nanomaterials and their applications in bioremediation, addressing the remediation of hazardous environmental pollutants. Divided into two sections, the first section explores the polluted environment, emphasizing the critical state of soil and highlighting the primary hazardous pollutants. It also sheds light on the utilization of algae, autochthonous, introduced, or genetically modified organisms for the degradation of toxic contaminants.

In the second section, bio- and nanoremediation techniques are presented through synthesis, green synthesis, and molecular farming. These methods are discussed in terms of their applications and impacts, with a particular focus on their collaborative efforts in enhancing performance, organisms, and nanomaterials for environmental remediation.

The book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, and professionals engaged in environmental remediation and pollution control. It provides a thorough understanding of the latest advancements in nanomaterials and their potential to mitigate the harmful effects of environmental pollutants.
