Definition

Bioremediation is the removal of heavy metals or any pollutants from the waste waters using agroindustry by-product wastes. Bioremediation is the important process for sustainable environment. Sustainability is the process of maintaining the balance without causing any harm to the environment or living organisms. For circular economy, value addition of the wastes as soil amendments to improve the physicochemical properties of soil or commercially important products can be done.

Introduction

World paper industry covers almost 3.5% of the world industrial manufacture and 2% of world’s trade. Paper industry holds prominent position in business sector that are using circular economy approach. Paper generation was initially dependent upon the resources like plant material. With the extensive technology and sustainable development, waste papers have been used as raw material to reduce the loss of...
