Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BIOREMEDIATION OF POLLUTANTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/208657
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Contamination of environment by a multitude of pollutants is becoming a global health concern. Lot of methods are being used for bioremediation of those pollutants. A method and system for one or more pollutants has been provided. The sample is collected from a site containing pollutants. Pollutants are then isolated from the sample. Further, a knowledgebase various types of degraders of those pollutant is created. Using this knowledgebase a map of microbes is created. The map of microbes is then used to design a first microbial consortia and a second microbial consortia which together contributes genes, proteins and enzymes required for degradation of the pollutants. And finally, a concoction of the first and/or second microbial consortia is administered on the site. The method further comprises the checking the efficacy of the administered consortia and further comprise re-administration of the concoction.
