Bioaugmentation Technologies

Bioaugmentation technologies involve adding specialized microorganisms to contaminated environments, such as soil or water, to accelerate the breakdown of pollutants like oil, pesticides, or heavy metals. These beneficial microbes enhance natural biodegradation processes, making pollution cleanup more efficient and effective. The approach is eco-friendly, as it leverages natural biological mechanisms without relying on chemical treatments. Used in environmental remediation and wastewater treatment, bioaugmentation helps restore contaminated sites, improving environmental health and safety.
