Beschreibung
This volume explores the potential of microorganisms as active agents in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and restoring ecological balance. It provides an overview of microbial strategies for carbon sequestration, methane and nitrous oxide mitigation, and bioremediation. It further explores cutting-edge applications such as microbial fuel cells, bioengineered methanotrophs and synthetic biology for climate resilience. Structured into fifteen chapters, the book covers microbial dynamics in carbon-rich ecosystems, marine microbes in oceanic carbon cycling, plant probiotics for regenerative agriculture, and designer algae for enhanced carbon capture. It further examines AI and nanotechnology integration with microbial systems, offering a forward-looking perspective on climate-smart biotechnology. Additionally, by positioning microbes as bioengineers for climate action, this book highlights their role in advancing circular bioeconomy frameworks and global climate strategies.
Bridging fundamental science, applied research and policy, this volume serves as a practical roadmap for researchers, industry professionals and policymakers. It emphasizes real-world applications and interdisciplinary approaches, making it an essential resource for environmental biotechnology, microbiology, climate science and sustainability studies.
