Industrial wastewater treatment using extracellular polymer substances/bioflocculants: a review Bishwambhar Mishra, Parashuram Kallem, Rajasri Yadavalli, Sanjeeb Kumar Mandal, C. Nagendranatha Reddy, B. Sumithra, N. S. V Lakshmayya, Fawzi Bana Applied Water Science, 2025 The treatment of industrial wastewater, containing various contaminants like chemicals, dyes, and heavy metals, has emerged as a significant environmental issue. Traditional treatment procedures, although successful, frequently include synthetic chemicals that are non-biodegradable and present hazards to both ecosystems and human health. Bio-flocculants, especially those originating from extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) generated by microorganisms, provide an environmentally benign and sustainable option. These bioflocculants utilize microbial enzymes and polymeric substances to efficiently agglomerate and eliminate contaminants, adhering to the principles of green chemistry. Recent studies have concentrated on enhancing bioflocculant manufacturing technologies and their utilization in industrial wastewater treatment. Research is directed on improving biodegradability, cost-efficiency, and pollutant removal efficacy. This paper analyzes the function of microbial-based bioflocculants in industrial wastewater treatment, emphasizing their ecological advantages, biodegradability, and economic efficiency. It also examines progress in bioflocculant synthesis, concentrating on the production and application of EPS. Contemporary research trends focus on enhancing bioflocculant manufacturing technologies and broadening their industrial uses. Future initiatives focus on improving the efficiency and scalability of bioflocculants to facilitate new and sustainable wastewater management solutions.

Nanobioremediation: A Sustainable Reclamation Method for Future Deployment Sanjeeb Kumar Mandal, Alekhya Pasumarthy, Dhruv Tadikonda, Bishwambhar Mishra, B. Sumithra, Sumithra Salla, D. Mahaboob Basha, Ashoutosh Panday Nano Bioremediation for Wastewater Treatment, 2025 Persistent anthropogenic activity has led to the massive induction of indestructible heavy metals, chemicals, and other persistent bioaccumulative toxic substances (PBTs) into the aquatic ecosystem. When the aforementioned are deposited into numerous bodies of water in abundance, they severely affect aquatic and human life. Despite being versatile and simple to apply, present physicochemical remediation technologies are outmoded, harmful to the environment, and ineffective. Bioremediation is a biotechnological method that utilizes bacteria and enzymes to remove or break down toxins from polluted environments. This has emerged as a secure, efficient, financially sound, and productive technique, as opposed to its precursors. In specific, however, because of their strong reactivity, nanomaterials have emerged as one of the most successful developing methods for cleaning up said toxins. When nanomaterials with unique characteristics are mixed with traditional treatment processes, they give several prospects for radical modifications in wastewater management methodologies. Nanobioremediation is a revolutionary approach that enhances pollutant removal efficiency. It addresses the limitations of conventional bioremediation by leveraging nanotechnology. This technology holds immense potential for improving water and wastewater treatment efficiency and augmenting water supply through the safe utilization of atypical water sources. The integration of nanotechnology and synthetic biology offers additional solutions for heavy metal decontamination—paving the way for a more cohesive and comprehensive approach to environmental remediation.
