Environmental Chemistry I
Bioaugmentation is a bioremediation technique that involves the addition of specific microorganisms to contaminated environments to enhance the degradation of pollutants. By introducing these beneficial microbes, bioaugmentation aims to speed up the natural breakdown of harmful substances, improving the efficiency of the remediation process. This technique is especially valuable in treating organic contaminants and can be applied in various settings, including soil and water systems.
