Organic Contaminants are Degraded by Rhizospheric Microorganisms: A Review

Abstract

Organic pollutants have grown to be a serious global problem because of their massive creation, widespread application, and eventual discharge. Due to biomagnification, accumulation, and their harmful acute and chronic impacts on all living things, these substances significantly increased the load on the ecosystem and its potential threats. Reducing the risk factors associated with organic contaminantsthrough rhizospheric microfilms is crucial. Rhizoremediation is phytoremediation that removes toxins from  the soil using plant roots and the rhizospheric microorganisms living on them. Research has shown that one of the best techniques is bioremediation utilizing plants. Utilizing bacteria from plants offers a lot of potential for rhizoremediation. Dangerous environmental contaminants include toxic industry byproducts, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), organochlorine insecticides, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). These substances are categorized as global concern chemicals due to their propensity to travel long distances, remain in the environment, and potential for bio-accumulation and bio-magnification through the food chain. Organic pollutants can be broken down from the soil by soil microflora, which can also promote plant development in stressful environments. Plant-microbe interaction is essential for removing contaminants from the soil. Cleaning up these and harmful pollutants is therefore essential together with microbes; phytoremediation is an economical way to remove the pollutants from the soil, air, and water that is also environmentally acceptable.
