Microbiology of environmental pollution refers to the study of microorganisms that interact with pollutants in various environments, such as soil, water, and air. This field examines how bacteria, fungi, and other microbes can degrade, transform, or accumulate contaminants, including heavy metals, pesticides, and organic waste. Understanding these microbial processes is crucial for developing bioremediation strategies to mitigate pollution and restore ecosystems. Additionally, it helps in assessing the ecological impacts of pollutants and the health risks they pose to living organisms.
COD in microbiology stands for Chemical Oxygen Demand, which is a measure of the amount of organic compounds in a water sample that can be oxidized by a strong chemical oxidant. It is commonly used to assess water quality and pollution levels in environmental microbiology studies.

Environmental Pollution is the release of environmental contaminants,generally resulting from human activity.
Royal Commission on Environmental Pollution was created in 1970.
