Bioaugmentation of treatment wetlands – A review
Science of The Total Environment, 2021Bioaugmentation in the form of artificial mycorrhization of plant roots and bacterial inoculation has been successfully implemented in several fields including soil remediation or activated sludge treatment. Likewise, bioaugmentation seems a promising approach to improve the functioning of treatment wetlands, considering that natural mycorrhization has

Ecological study of a bioaugmentation failure
Environmental Microbiology, 2000A nitrifying sequencing batch reactor was inoculated twice with the aerobic denitrifying bacterium Microvirgula aerodenitrificans and fed with acetate. No improvement was obtained on nitrogen removal. The second more massive inoculation was even followed by a nitrification breakdown, while at

Bioaugmentation for nitrification at cold temperatures
Water Research, 2004Bioaugmentation of nitrifying bacteria for short solids retention time (short-SRT) nitrification is an attractive alternative for wastewater treatment plants in cold climates or for those in the process of upgrading to include nitrification. One possible source of ammonia for the production of nitrifying bacteria is the liquor generated during the ...

Survival and activity of individual bioaugmentation strains
Bioresource Technology, 2015Successful application of bioaugmentation for enhanced degradation of environmental pollutants is often limited by the lack of methods to monitor the survival and activity of individual bioaugmentation strains. However, recent advancements in sequencing technologies and molecular techniques now allow us to address these limitations.

Bioaugmentation: an approach to biological treatment of pollutants
Biodegradation, 2023Industrial development and the associated generation of waste requires attention for their management, treatment, and reduction without further degrading the quality of life. Microbes and plant-based bioremediation approaches are some of the sustainable strategies for the biodegradation of harmful pollutants instead of chemical-based treatment ...

Bioaugmentation for Pollutant Removal
2023Environmental pollution management through conventional methods in the wake of new, recalcitrant, and increasing pollutant loads are no longer adequate or sustainable. Bioaugmentation for pollutant removal is an environmental (water and soil) decontamination approach alternative to the popular and traditional physico.chemical methods.

Bioaugmentation as a soil bioremediation approach
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1996The debate over the efficacy of bioaugmentation rages on, with research continuing to demonstrate that its advantages for soil bioremediation are difficult to predict; however, when it works, the results are often very encouraging. The difficulties arise from, among others, the diversity of the microorganisms used, environmental heterogeneity, and ...

Bioaugmentation for MTBE Remediation
2012Bioaugmentation to treat methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) in groundwater was considered a promising technique for several years, with several researchers involved in developing and testing MTBE-degrading bacteria. Although the effort yielded important insights into the biodegradation of MTBE and its daughter product tert-butyl alcohol (TBA ...
