Recent Advances in Microbial Biodegradation

With the widespread consumption of synthetic materials around the world, the amount of waste produced has increased, resulting in higher levels of toxicity in marine and soil ecosystems and causing severe health issues. Research on waste material degradation was focused on physical, chemical, biological, and enzymatic techniques to waste degradation. Interestingly, microorganisms like algae, fungi, and bacteria have attracted scientists' interest as a bioremediation technique due to their cost-effectiveness and affordability. This work discusses many features of biodegradation in natural environments and variables that influence microbial waste degradation and application.
