Sustainable Remediation of Contaminated Soil Using Biosurfactants
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 Selection of the most appropriate remediation technology must coincide with the environmental characteristics of the site. The risk to human health and the environment at the site must be reduced, and not be transferred to another site.

Biosurfactants: Properties, Applications and Emerging Trends
South African Journal of Chemical EngineeringDifferent microbes release biosurfactants, which are specialists that act on biological surfaces. Biosurfactants are transported to the microbial film or released onto the external film, and they display hydrophilic and hydrophobic locations.

Production of Biosurfactants by Ascomycetes
International Journal of Microbiology, 2021 Surfactants are utilized to reduce surface tension in aqueous and nonaqueous systems. Currently, most synthetic surfactants are derived from petroleum. However, these surfactants are usually highly toxic and are poorly degraded by microorganisms.
