A review of current understanding regarding bioremediation techniques against pesticides

Abstract

Hazardous waste bioremediation is a relatively young technique that has seen increased research in recent decades. The goal of this procedure is to eliminate or render harmful waste items immobile. Around the world, pesticides are a widespread threat because they seep into soils, surface and groundwater, posing health risks to several areas. Because pesticides are persistent, it is more vital to remove and detoxify them. In-situ and ex-situ treatment are the two main categories into which pesticide bioremediation falls. There are notable benefits and drawbacks to both approaches.
