Abstract: 
Industrial development has brought new processes, operations and advance materials for the production that generate waste and effluents. The present treatments are not effective and efficient for the treatment of contaminants to comply with the standards. Bioremediation technology has emerged out with the latest current practices and advances in the treatment viz. Rhizo-remediation, nano-rhizoremediation, bioaugmentation, metagenomics approaches as well as nano-technology involving innovative techniques and nanomaterials for application in nano-rhizosphere, nano-phytoremediation, and nano-rhizoremediation. The present paper highlights an overview of bioremediation practices and current new perspective for remediation of contaminants for environmental protection.
