Government Regulations and Funding for Research & Development Activities in Bioremediation

Contributes Significantly to Bioremediation Technology and Services Market Growth

The Environmental Protection Agency is the primary federal agency in charge of enforcing environmental regulations in the US. Most countries have environmental protection agencies that assist in implementing laws concerning environmental issues and human health protection. Governments of various countries are funding for research & development activities in bioremediation. For instance, the EiCLaR project was launched in January 2021. The EU and PR China, including 13 Europe and 5 Chinese partners, collaborate on this US$ 7.48 million project. Over the next 48 months, EiCLaR will develop scientific and technical innovations for in situ bioremediation technologies that will be directly developed into industrial processes for the rapid, efficient, and cost-effective treatment of various pollutants such as chlorinated solvents, heavy metals, and pesticides.

In addition, the partnership program, which focuses on cooperation between academics, industries, government, and other entities, received UBC Science researchers funding worth US$ 1.2 million in May 2019. The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada's (NSERC) Strategic Partnership Grants program has awarded funding to five UBC projects, including green chemistry and microbial bioremediation. These successful applications prompted private and government entities to invest in advancements in bioremediation technology.

Similarly, the US National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences' Superfund Research Program promotes research in innovative bioremediation technologies for hazardous wastes. The US Department of Energy's Biological and Environmental Research program has also supported the research. Bioremediation research is also supported by international public institutes in India and China. Due to such funding, scientists are creating genetically modified microorganisms (GMMs) with a wide range of possible bioremediation applications.

Furthermore, the Department of Energy's (DoE) Office of Health and Environmental Research sponsored a workshop to promote its new foundational scientific program in Natural and Accelerated Bioremediation Research (NABIR). The NABIR program aims to provide the scientific knowledge needed to harness natural processes for bioremediation and to create techniques to speed up these processes for the bioremediation of contaminated sediments, soils, and groundwater at DoE facilities. NABIR focuses on bioremediation of complex contaminant mixtures, primarily emphasizing metals, radionuclides, solvents, explosives (e.g., TNT, HMX, RDX), chelating agents, and organic acids. Natural and Accelerated Bioremediation Research (NABIR) is the only federal program that funds fundamental bioremediation research on environmental metal and radionuclide contamination. The program's greatest strength is bringing together skills and knowledge from various fields to tackle complex research challenges. NABIR's findings will affect the development of successful bioremediation methods and contribute a new understanding of the microbiological and geochemical functions. These advancements may lead to more effective natural resource stewardship and DoE site rehabilitation.

Also, the Agriculture-Based Remediation Program is funding the Technology Development and Training in Bioremediation project, led by the University of Hawaii (ABRP). The United States Department of Agriculture's Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service (USDA-CSREES), the United States Army Environmental Center (USAEC), and the United States Army Corps of Engineers Waterways Experiment Station have all contributed to the program's success (USACE-WES). The project aims to enhance bioremediation skills locally, grow a bioremediation sector that can service Hawaii and other parts of Asia Pacific, and raise public awareness of agriculture-based bioremediation technology.

Thus, the continuous funding for research & development activities in bioremediation by the governments is expected to drive the bioremediation technology and services market.

Rise in Awareness About Scarcity of Natural Resources such as Water and Oil Contributes Significantly to Bioremediation Technology and Services Bioremediation Technology and Services Market Growth

Bioremediation is a waste management technology that uses microorganisms to break down toxic chemicals in soil, water, and air. Municipalities, government agencies, and industries may change the way organic chemical spills minimize their environmental impact. In Canada, terrestrial bioremediation has proven successful in the north, encouraging new research into its potential use in the marine environment. Governments have established appropriate policies and strict rules that provide opportunities to reduce water scarcity. Government policies play a crucial role in reducing the problem of water scarcity, and governments include projects and awareness programs to recognize the importance of water conservation so that countries can avoid water overexploitation.

The United Nations (UN) encourages the creation of national parks worldwide. The UN also established World Water Day to raise awareness and promote water conservation. Several organizations seek to spread awareness about the environment and promote activities and attitudes that lead to conserving the environment and natural resources. For instance, the partnership between the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) and the National Research Council (NRC) aims to determine the rate of petroleum biodegradation, especially in cold oceanic climates.

Many local and international organizations and some governments are taking initiatives in conservation efforts. For instance, in November 2021, Dr. Doug Muench, a professor in the Department of Biological Sciences, co-leading a multi-institutional grant valued over US$ 6.3 million from Genome Canada to improve constructed wetland treatment systems for the bioremediation of oilsands process-affected water (OSPW).

Furthermore, in August 2019, two McGill researchers developed a solution to cleanse marine oil spills on the Northwest Passage and the waters around Canada and secured US$ 3.7 million from the MultiPartner Research Initiative (MPRI). Minister Lametti announced funding for two research projects led by Concordia University. In total, this investment exceeds US$ 8.2 million and supports 19 graduate research positions.

Thus, the growing awareness about the scarcity of natural resources such as water and oil is expected to drive the bioremediation technology and services market during the forecast period.

Environmental service contractors are at the forefront since they provide services and products. The pandemic impacted both materials and labor, which are two of the most expensive components of remediation projects, posing a threat to ongoing project delivery, company liquidity, and entire business models. The clean-up supply chain has been severely harmed, resulting in project delays and/or additional expenditures. As the world slowly recovers, the way businesses are conducted will never be the same. COVID-19 has altered the corporate landscape in general. Plastics have become a severe transboundary threat to natural ecosystems and human health, with studies predicting a twofold increase in the number of plastic debris (including micro and nano-sized plastics) by 2030. Such predictions will likely be aggravated by the excessive use and consumption of single-use plastics (including personal protective equipment such as masks and gloves) due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has pushed the world into a new challenge of waste management.
