With greater understanding of microbial diversity and the development of bioengineering, bioremediation is taking its place as a cost-effective technique in integrated environmental restoration efforts. The major reasons for the control of water and... Read More about Environmental Pollution and Restoration: A Role for Bioremediation.

Partitioning and Bioavailability (2005)
Book Chapter
Philp, J., Stainsby, F., & Dunbar, S. (2005). Partitioning and Bioavailability. In Water encyclopediaWiley. doi:10.1002/047147844x.pc441

As soon as a chemical is spilled it becomes a pollutant, but the fate of that pollutant depends to a large degree on its chemistry, which determines how it will partition to various “compartments,” or phases, of the environment. This idea is enshrine... Read More about Partitioning and Bioavailability.
