"Biofilm Engineering" (book)

"Biofilm Engineering" is a scientific field focused on understanding and designing biological films—complex communities of microorganisms attached to surfaces. These biofilms play vital roles in natural environments, industry, and healthcare, influencing processes like wastewater treatment, bioremediation, and infection control. The book explores methods to study, manipulate, and engineer biofilms for beneficial purposes, such as enhancing microbial productivity or preventing harmful buildup. It combines microbiology, engineering, and materials science to develop innovative solutions for managing biofilms effectively and sustainably across various applications.
