📄 Abstract（原文）
Utilising the capacities of various microorganisms, such as bacteria, microalgae and fungi, microbial environmental engineering tackles urgent global issues related to sustainability and climate change mitigation. This chapter examines new microbial technologies that offer integrated solutions for resource recovery, pollution reduction and energy transition in the fields of biofuels, bioelectricity, bioremediation, and carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS). Utilising bacteria and microalgae to effectively produce biodiesel, bioethanol and advanced biofuels, microorganisms are at the forefront of the biofuel production process. These developments provide scalable renewable energy alternatives while lowering dependency on fossil fuels. In CCUS, bacteria aid in biomineralisation, which transforms CO2 into stable carbonates, while microalgae use photosynthesis to absorb atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) Also, methanotrophs help mitigate the effects of methane, another greenhouse gas. Microbial fuel cells and microbial electrolysis cells are examples of bioelectrochemical devices that use bacteria to transform organic waste into hydrogen or electricity. Microalgal-bacterial consortia show promise for working together to remediate wastewater and improve carbon fixation and bioenergy production. Microalgae, fungi and bacteria are used in bioremediation to break down organic contaminants and extract heavy metals from contaminated areas. The efficiency and specificity of these procedures are being improved by innovations like nanobiotechnology and genetically engineered microorganisms. These applications are further supported by real-time microbial biosensors, which make it possible to precisely monitor and optimise microbial systems.
