The growing rate of urbanization and industrialization has led to an increase in several types pollution caused by the release toxic chemicals environment. This is usually perpetuated manufacturing industry (e.g. detergent dye), agricultural sectors fertilizers pesticides), mining cyanide sulphuric acid) construction companies cement metals). These pollutants have adverse effects on health plants, animals, humans. They also lead destruction microbial population both aquatic terrestrial regions, hence, necessitated need for remediation. Although different remediation methods, such as physical chemical been adopted years, however, drawbacks challenges associated with them promoted use alternative which bioremediation. Bioremediation involves using biological agents plants microbes remove or lessen environmental pollutants. Of two, are more utilized primarily because their rapid growth ability be easily manipulated, thus enhancing function Different groups bacteria, fungi algae employed clean up various review discusses types, mechanisms, factors affecting It recommends possible steps that could taken promote bioremediation agents.

Toxic wastes like heavy metals and dyes are released into the environment as a direct result of industrialization technological progress. The biosorption contaminants utilizes variety biomaterials. Biosorbents can adsorb toxic pollutants on their surface through various mechanisms complexation, precipitation, etc. quantity sorption sites that accessible biosorbent affects its effectiveness. Biosorption’s low cost, high efficiency, lack nutrient requirements, ability to regenerate main advantages over other treatment methods. Optimization environmental conditions temperature, pH, availability, factors is prerequisite achieving optimal performance. Recent strategies include nanomaterials, genetic engineering, biofilm-based remediation for types pollutants. removal hazardous from wastewater using biosorbents strategy both efficient sustainable. This review provides perspective existing literature brings it up-to-date by including latest research findings in field.
