Produktbeschreibung

Bioremediation is a process applied to restore contaminated sitesusing biological tools. The success or failure of this processusually depends on an understanding of the biotechnological processas
well as the strengths and weaknesses of the ecotoxicological toolsused for its evaluation.

Die Bioremediation ist ein Verfahren, bei dem biologische Verfahren eingesetzt werden, um industrielle Schadstoffe in verschiedenen Ökosystemen wieder in den natürlichen Stoffkreislauf zurückzuführen. Ob die Bioremediation erfolgreich ist oder nicht, hängt entscheidend vom Verständnis des biotechnologischen Prozesses und von den Stärken und Schwächen der eingesetzten ökotoxikologischen Verfahren ab. "Environmental Analysis of Contaminated Sites" diskutiert umweltanalytische Verfahren und Methoden zur Bewertung der erfolgreichen Sanierung kontaminierter Bodensysteme. Ein nützlicher Leitfaden, der diese komplexe Thematik umfassend behandelt, indem er Ökotoxizitätstests für den Bodenschutz, die Bioremediation und die Risikobewertung der Umweltgefährdung miteinander verbindet. Darüber hinaus beschreibt er das Zusammenwirken von ökotoxikologischer Labor- und Felduntersuchung, Biotechnologie Consultants und verschiedenen internationalen Umweltkontrollbehörden und erklärt, wie sie gemeinsam an einer erfolgreichen Auswertung sanierter Umweltsysteme arbeiten. Mit zahlreichen Fallstudien zu erfolgreichen und gescheiterten Projekten.
