Environmental Biotechnology
Environmental Biotechnology is the system of scientific & engineering knowledge related to use of microorganisms & their products in the prevention of environmental pollution through Bio-remediation of solid, liquid & gaseous wastes and polluted environment, and also the Bio-monitoring of environment & treatment processes.
The main consideration for application of biotechnology in waste treatment is the technically and economically reasonable rate of biodegradability or detoxification of substances during biotechnological treatment.
Biotechnology can be applied in the natural environment to harness the biological process for commercial use and also to exploit for development & regulation of biological systems for remediation of contaminated environments (water, land, air) and for environment-friendly processes (sustainable green manufacturing technologies (SGMT).
ABIL’s bio-technological waste water treatment has the advantage of enabling bio-degradation or detoxification of a wide spectrum of hazardous substances using a wide range of natural microorganisms and available bio-technological methods for complete destruction of hazardous wastes in water and diverse conditions suitable for bio-degradation.
ABIL’s Bio-technology systems uses natural plants, animals, bacteria, fungi and algae to initiate profit making processes where the waste of each process becomes the feed stock for another process.
ABIL practices Environmental biotechnology system of sound scientific and engineering knowledge related to the use of microorganisms and their products in the prevention of environmental pollution through bio-treatment of solid, liquid, and gaseous wastes. Bio-remediation of polluted environment, bio-monitoring of environment and treatment processes.
ABILs bio-treatment is based on physiological type of applied microorganisms, such as aerobically respiring microorganisms.
ABIL bio-remediation treatment of wastes is enhanced by using optimal environmental factors; like better availability of aeration (oxygen), contaminants or nutrients, and addition of selected strain(s) of biomass or microorganisms.
Bio-augmentation can be accelerated by ABIL’s Aerobic Bacteria Generators (ABG) inoculating the microorganisms continuously to enhance concentration in treatment system that is essential for hazardous waste treatment. The rate of bio-remediation performed by microorganisms is sufficient to achieve the treatment goal within the prescribed duration.
ABIL considers Biosensor devices; when it is necessary to direct the bio-degradation to the best pathway among many possible pathways and to prevent growth and dispersion in waste treatment system of unwanted or non-determined microbial strain which may be pathogenic or opportunistic. By using biosensor devices in treatments system for bio-monitoring of environment and treatment processes. Combinations of biosensors in array with physical analyses can be used to measure concentration or toxicity of a set of hazardous substances, qualitative or quantitative detection of different microorganisms in the environmental sample to monitor the environment through laboratory analyses.
Biosensor devices are essential tools in bio-monitoring of environment and treatment processes.
