Illustrating the application of fundamental concepts in microbiology, this book provides an intimate understanding of the design and operation of biological systems used in solving environmental challenges involving air, water, and soil. The author emphasizes the quantitative relationships of microbial growth and metabolism, beginning with an examination of overall metabolism and resulting growth of bacteria, fungi, algae, protozoa, rotifers, and other microorganisms. He explains how bacteria bring about the stabilization of biodegradable organic pollutants. The text also discusses the proper environmental conditions for optimizing microbial stabilization.
