Role of Algae in Bio-remediation of Waste water: Current Research

  • Unique Paper ID: 188495
  • PageNo: 2386-2390
  • Abstract:
  • The commercial use of these plants for wastewater treatment has been minimal, despite the diversity of algae and the low cost of algae biomass. These days, bioremediation is a cheap and effective decontamination technique that is gaining popularity to lessen environmental pollution. Sewage disposal in urban and semi-urban colonies has turned into an ecological issue.One of the main causes of water contamination is the wastewater discharge from homes and businesses. For the removal of such contaminated materials, several techniques, including ion exchange, evaporation, and precipitation, has been devised. Algae are utilized in wastewater treatment already and are significant bioremediation agents. However, compared to its current role, algae have far larger potential in wastewater cleanup. This publication outlines the region where research gives to the globe a “Algal Based Bioremediation” for cleaning the water bodies. We examined the efficacy of algae in wastewater bioremediation in this review research.
