"A wide range of applications microorganisms in biotechnology shows their enormous importance in the environment and the possibilities of beneficial application for man and his environment. The book also contains a lot of valuable information enabling not only to assess the possibility of using specific microorganisms for many tasks, but also to determine the optimal conditions for their existence. The book can be recommended to researchers and students interested in environmental engineering, microbiology and biotechnology. This is a good and cognitively valuable scientific position."—Przemysl Chemiczny
