“…Furthermore, foraminiferal densities seem to decrease along with the dominance of the opportunistic taxa. The environmental impact of weathered crude oil on benthic foraminifera in an Atlantic coastal salt marsh was evaluated by Sabean et al (2009), who demonstrated the negative impact of oil on foraminiferal assemblages, as testified by a dramatic increase in abnormalities in Miliammina fusca when compared with the non-oiled control. Meanwhile, benthic foraminifera and macrofauna were evaluated as bio-indicators of an oil-based drill mud disposal site off Congo (Denoyelle et al, 2010).…”

“…Therefore, initial costs for site assessment, characterization and feasibility evaluation for bioremediation may be higher than the costs associated with more conventional technologies such as air stripping. As with remediation technologies, there is also the need for extensive monitoring of the site during implementation of the project (Sabean et al 2009) to assess the effectiveness of the bioremediation technique in its clean-up performance. Monitoring requirements may include some form of microbiological monitoring in addition to the chemical monitoring associated with physical/chemical remediation techniques.…”

Sustainable development requires the development and promotion of environmental management and a constant search for green technologies to treat a wide range of aquatic and terrestrial habitats contaminated by increasing anthropogenic activities. Bioremediation is an increasingly popular alternative to conventional methods for treating waste compounds and media with the possibility to degrade contaminants using natural microbial activity mediated by different consortia of microbial strains. Many studies about bioremediation have been reported and the scientific literature has revealed the progressive emergence of various bioremediation techniques. In this review, we discuss the various in situ and ex situ bioremediation techniques and elaborate on the anaerobic digestion technology, phytoremediation, hyperaccumulation, composting and biosorption for their effectiveness in the biotreatment, stabilization and eventually overall remediation of contaminated strata and environments. The review ends with a note on the recent advances genetic engineering and nanotechnology have had in improving bioremediation. Case studies have also been extensively revisited to support the discussions on biosorption of heavy metals, gene probes used in molecular diagnostics, bioremediation studies of contaminants in vadose soils, bioremediation of oil contaminated soils, bioremediation of contaminants from mining sites, air sparging, slurry phase bioremediation, phytoremediation studies for pollutants and heavy metal hyperaccumulators, and vermicomposting.

“…Their abundance and widespread preservation in marine sediments, short life cycles, high taxonomic diversity, easy collection methods and their sensitivity to environmental conditions, have allowed foraminifers to be commonly applied in palaeoecological and historical reconstructions (Cushman, 1928;Murray, 1991;Natland, 1933;Scott et al, 2005). Increasingly, foraminifers are gaining worldwide recognition as a promising tool: for establishing baseline conditions (Alve et al, 2009); in standard water quality monitoring (Bouchet et al, 2012;Reymond et al, 2012;Sabean et al, 2009;Schönfeld et al, 2012); and in establishing ecological quality status (EcoQs) (Bouchet et al, 2012). Large benthic foraminifers (LBFs), prominent calcium carbonate sediment producers in tropical/subtropical reefs, live in symbiosis with algae (Hallock, 1981(Hallock, , 1999(Hallock, , 2000.…”
