ABSTRACT

Heavy metals are naturally occurring elements which have a high risk of pollution in various levels of ecosystem. Due to numerous activities of agriculture, medical, industrial and technological application have led to their wide distribution in the ecosystem, which may arise worries to many factors, which shall be taken into consideration leading to mankind and ecosystem. The toxicity may depend to many different anthropogenic unmanaged factors which increases soil pollution globally. These pollutants can be either organic (PCB’s, PAH’s, fertilizers and pesticides) or inorganic pollutions including various heavy metals (cd, cu, As, Zn, Hg, Pb). Classification of metals is termed as heavy metals. Heavy metals have not only been known for their high density but most importantly for their fatal/ harmful effects on the ecosystem and living organisms. Several phytoremediation’s or bioremediation and scientific studies are being handed-down which employed various bacteria and fungi to get over some condition. Therefore, due to lack of knowledge on the synergetic heavy metal resistance bacteria and fungi for heavy metal remediation. Heavy metals exposure does significant harm to the natural ecosystem leading to numerous health risks to human and plants. Some bacteria are usually toxic to the metals, there are some metal tolerant bacteria are used for bioremediation. Bioremediation can be said as a satisfactory technique and effective way of reclaiming habits polluted with heavy metal by making use of the biological process of microorganism and plants to remove dangerous pollutants.
