Bioremediation refers to microorganisms being used to remove toxins pose environmental and human risks. Bioremediation processes usually involve the actions of many different microbes which act in parallel or sequence to complete the process of degradation. Microbe’s ability to remove a wide variety of contaminants makes bioremediation a technology that can be implemented under various soil conditions. While it may be inexpensive and in situ approaches may reduce disruptive engineering practices, it is still not standard practice for bioremediation.

A commonly used approach to bioremediation involves stimulating the naturally occurring microbial communities to break down a contaminant, supplying them with nutrients and other needs. This is called biostimulating. Biostimulation can be accomplished by increasing the pH, humidity, aeration or by adding electron donors, electron acceptors or nutrients. Another approach to bioremediation is called bioaugmentation, in which species chosen for high degradation potential are used to inoculate the polluted site. These two methods are not mutually exclusive- they can be used at the same time.

Bioremediation uses micro-organisms to reduce exposure of non-toxic substances by the biological degradation of contaminants. This may include either aerobic or anaerobic micro-organisms often using this breakdown as a source of energy. There are three types of bioremediation techniques: soil and groundwater in situ land treatment; air bio filtration; and bioreactors, which are primarily used in water treatment.
