“…Remediation processes involving the exploitation of biological resources, or their components and extracts, are referred to as 'bioremediation', which is achieved by the breakdown of toxic components into less toxic ones [75] as shown in Figure 6. Nanoformulations are great alternatives to get rid of contaminants present in the environment.…”

Advanced agronomic methods, urbanisation, and industrial expansion contaminate air, water and soil, globally. Agricultural and industrial activities threaten living biota, causing biodiversity loss and serious diseases. Strategies such as bioremediation and physiochemical remediation have not been effectively beneficial at treating pollutants. Metal-based nanoparticles (NPs) such as copper, zinc, silver, gold, etc., in various nanoformulations and nanocomposites are used more and more as they effectively resist the uptake of toxic compounds via plants by facilitating their immobilisation. According to studies, bio-based NP synthesis is a recent and agroecologically friendly approach for remediating environmental waste, which is effective against carcinogens, heavy metal contamination, treating marine water polluted with excessive concentrations of phosphorus, nitrogen and harmful algae, and hazardous dye- and pesticide-contaminated water. Biogenic resources such as bacteria, fungi, algae and plants are extensively used for the biosynthesis of NPs, particularly metallic NPs. Strategies involving green synthesis of NPs are nontoxic and could be employed for commercial scale production. Here, the focus is on the green synthesis of NPs for reduction of hazardous wastes to help with the clean-up process.

“…Moreover, nutrients added in this method could be from both organic and inorganic substances (Tyagi et al, 2010), meaning more options available to produce the nutrients. On the other hand, the main challenge when implementing this method is it relies heavily on geological structure of subsurface where the indigenous microorganisms live (Jayaprakash et al, 2019). This factor should not be overlooked as the geology structure will affect whether the additives could reach the microorganisms or not.…”

Oil spills on land is one of major environmental issues. The spills have been known to affect not only environment but also human health. Certain bioremediation techniques, biostimulation, bioaugmentation, and land farming, have been widely applied to solve the problem. Approaches using these methods, over the years, have given varying result and rate of success. In this paper, advantages, disadvantages, and limitation of the techniques when applied will be discussed.
