| Sumario: | Bioremediation includes processes such as bioventing, bioaugmentation, phytoremediation, biopiles, and composting. In this chapter, we details the characteristics, utilization and operating conditions of each process. Bioremediation is understood, according to the general definition, as the use of living organisms (microorganisms, plants, etc.) to improve and restore the ecological condition of a polluted or degraded substrate (area, land, aquifer, etc.) to better, favorable quality parameters life, harmless, non-polluting or to return it to its previous state. Soil treatment technologies through bioremediation include two types of treatments: in situ biological treatments (bioventilation, bioaugmentation, phytoremediation in soil) and ex situ biological treatments of polluted soils (biopiles and soil cultivation). |
