The natural environment is often contaminated with hydrophobic pollutants such as long-chain hydrocarbons, petrochemicals, oil spills, pesticides, and heavy metals. Hydrophobic a toxic nature, slow degradation rates, low solubility pose serious threats to the human health. Decontamination based on conventional chemical surfactants has been found be toxic, thereby limiting its application in pharmaceutical cosmetic industries. In contrast, biosurfactants synthesized by various microbial species have considered superior counterparts due their non-toxic economical nature. Some can withstand wide range of fluctuations temperature pH. Recently, emerged innovative biomolecules not only for solubilization but also biodegradation environmental metals, petroleum spills. Biosurfactants well documented function emulsifiers, dispersion stabilizers, wetting agents. amphiphilic nature potential enhance hydrocarbons spills reducing interfacial surface tension after distribution two immiscible surfaces. However, remediation contaminants using affected considerably temperature, pH, media composition, stirring rate, microorganisms selected biosurfactant production. present review briefly discussed current advancements microbially biosurfactants, factors affecting production, addition, latest aspect circular bioeconomy terms generating from waste global economic aspects

Surfactants can be used as nanoparticle stabilizing agents. However, since synthetic surfactants are not economically viable and environmentally friendly, biosurfactants emerging a green alternative for the synthesis stabilization of nanoparticles. Nanoparticles have been applied in several areas industry, such production biomedical therapeutic components, packaging coating, solar energy generation transmission distribution electrical energy, among others. The aim this study was to synthesize, simple way, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using biosurfactant produced by

During the last few decades, water pollution has become a growing concern at international level. To date, only Candida parapsilosis strains were successfully used in environmental remediation. In present article, strain C. CMGB-YT was studied for its ability to assimilate hydrophobic substrates and produce biosurfactants with antimicrobial activity positive effects on heavy metal removal from contaminated wastewaters. The grown yeast peptone (YP) media 1% n-decane, n-dodecane, n-tetradecane, n-hexadecane, as well commercial sunflower olive oils. production of biosurfactant evaluated using emulsification index (E24%). surface properties emulsifying stability determined. effect cell growth two Rhodotorula mucilaginosa their capacity lead (0.032 g/L) cadmium (0.030 ions synthetic wastewater also studied. potential 20 mg/mL 40 established presence pathogenic krusei strains. assimilated n-hexadecane good rates over 216 h produced an anionic glycolipidic stable E24% towards long-chain carbon compounds different temperatures, alkaline pH high salinity (10% NaCl). reduced tension 53.58 ± 0.42 mN/m, while critical micellar concentration (CMC) reached 4.2% biosurfactant. crude (5%) enhanced R. metal-contaminated wastewater, increased chemical oxygen demand (COD) up 80%, improved Cd2+ by 10%. Additionally, concentrated effectively prevented biofilm formation. conclusion, demonstrates promising efficient treatment metals microbial pathogens.
