Answer:
Explanation:
Bioremediation is the use of microorganisms (bacteria and fungi) to degrade the environmental contaminants into less toxic forms.
The microorganisms may be indigenous to a contaminated area or they may be isolated from elsewhere and brought to the contaminated site.
The process of bioremediation can be monitored in directly by measuring the oxidation reduction potential or redox in soil and groundwater, together with pH, temperature, oxygen content, electron acceptor / donor concentrations, and concentrations of break down products. (ex:- carbon dioxide).
