Nature evolved a fundamental biological process to keep components of our environment in perfect equilibrium. Microbes degrade waste organics-converting them into simple building blocks which are then used to rebuild complex organics. This cycle provides a balance of resources and gives nature the ability to renew itself.
However, man’s ability to contaminate the environment can exceed the rate of natural biological processes. Environmental contaminations such as polluted water and airborne malodors chemicals occur because the nature microbial population cannot degrade the organics as fast as they are building.
Biotechnology helps nature clean itself by introducing highly specialized, naturally occurring microorganisms with enhanced degradation capabilities.
