  • Title: Bioremediation of industrial waste by using bat guano.
    Author: Gadhikar YA, Zade VS, Khadse T.
    Journal: J Environ Sci Eng; 2007 Apr; 49(2):153-6. PubMed ID: 18476410.
    Abstract:
    The present investigation is an attempt to study the effect of bat guano with its rich microbial flora on bioremediation of industrial waste effluents. The results revealed that within a period of 15 days, there was a remarkable reduction in the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) values up to 50%-70%, thus stabilizing the industrial effluents. In addition to this,values of various physico-chemical parameters were notably found to reduce suggesting that industrial effluents can be effectively treated by bat guano.
