Bioaugmentation is the process of adding specific strains of microorganisms to contaminated environments to enhance the degradation of pollutants. This technique aims to improve the natural biodegradation processes by introducing microorganisms that are capable of breaking down organic contaminants more effectively. By enhancing the microbial community, bioaugmentation can lead to faster and more complete remediation of contaminated sites.
congrats on reading the definition of bioaugmentation. now let's actually learn it.
