Environmental biotechnology is the application of biotechnological processes to solve environmental problems.

Environmental Biotechnology involves the use of microorganisms, plants, and their enzymes to treat contaminated environments, reduce pollution, and manage waste. Key applications include bioremediation (cleaning up contaminated soil and water), biofiltration (removing pollutants from air and water), and the development of sustainable biofuels and biodegradable materials. This field aims to harness biological systems to develop eco-friendly and efficient solutions for environmental sustainability.
