Preface
Environmental and organismal (flora, fauna, and human) health can be impacted by varied chemical pollutants, continuously increasing in major environmental compartments. Notably, the bioavailability, stabilization, and degradation of pollutants are the major drivers that control the pollutant’s exclusion, remediation/accumulation, and/or metabolism, performed by innovative technology involving biological (plants and associated microbes, etc.) and/or non-biological/(electro)chemical strategies. This two-volume work is an effort to gather information on and get insights into biological and non-biological (chemical) approaches extensively studied and adopted for the speedy cleanup of pollutants from environmental compartments. In Volume 1, (a) important concepts such as biological reme
