Detailed explanation-1: -Bioremediation is a process of detoxifying or degrading contaminants present in the soil, wastewater, or industrial sludge by biological means. Microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, etc.) can take part in this process, although plant-assisted bioremediation is often termed as phytoremediation (Ma et al., 2011).

Detailed explanation-2: -Bioremediation includes above-ground piling of dug polluted soil, followed by aeration and nutrient amendment to improve bioremediation by microbial metabolic activities. This technique comprises aeration, irrigation, nutrients, leachate collection and treatment bed systems.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bioremediation is a process that uses mainly microorganisms, plants, or microbial or plant enzymes to detoxify contaminants in the soil and other environments.
