Biotechnology of Metals: Principles, Recovery Methods and Environmental Concerns
Synopsis "Biotechnology of Metals: Principles, Recovery Methods and Environmental Concerns"
Biotechnology of Metals: Principles, Recovery Methods and Environmental Concerns deals with all aspects of metal biotechnology in different areas, such as biogenesis, biomaterials, biomimetic strategies, biohydrometallurgy, mineral biobeneficiation, electrobioleaching, microbial corrosion, human implants, concrete biocorrosion, microbiology of environment pollution, and bioremediation. As the technology of this interdisciplinary science has diversified over the last five years, this book provides a valuable source for scientists and students in a number of disciplines, including geology, chemistry, metallurgy, microbiology, chemical engineering, environment, civil engineering, and biomedical engineering.Offers comprehensive coverage of an interdisciplinary subjectOutlines the role of microbiology and biotechnology in mining, metallurgy, waste disposal and environmental controlCovers new topics, such as biogenesis, biomaterials processing, the role of micro-organisms in causing corrosion, and much morePresents scientifically illustrated experimental research methods in metals biotechnology
