Explanation:
Microbes help in keeping our environment naturally clean by decomposing the dead matter. These decomposed
substances are re-used from the soil by plants and thus recycled. When added to the wastewater, they get involved
in certain chemical reactions as a result of which they produce enzymes and clean the wastewater. These bacteria

byproduct which can be used as cooking gas of for lighting the houses, especially in remote areas.
