Bioaugmentation offers several advantages: 1. Enhanced Degradation Rates: By introducing specialized microorganisms, the rate of pollutant breakdown can be significantly increased. 2. Targeted Action: Specific strains can be tailored to degrade particular contaminants, making the process more efficient. 3. Environmentally Friendly: As a biological process, bioaugmentation is generally considered to be more sustainable and less harmful to the environment compared to chemical treatments.
