Abstract

Water pollution is on the rise because of increased human population and activities, unsustainable agricultural practices, and rapid industrialization, and it is a major global concern. Therefore, there is a scarcity of clean water, which has been related to diseases like typhoid, diarrhea, cholera, jaundice, and others. Major contaminants include heavy metals, organic, and inorganic pollutants. The use of naturally occurring microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, or plants i.e., Bioremediation to treat polluted wastewater has proven to be effective and efficient. This article briefly discusses the impact of water pollution on the environment, as well as various strategies for removing it.
