Role of Microorganisms in the Degradation of Environmental Pollutants: Microbes play an important role in the biodegradation of environmental pollutants. The rare bacterial biosphere fulfills essential functions in the degradation of pollutants and enhances the functionality of the more abundant microbes.

Microorganisms are involved through their enzymatic pathways, acting as biocatalysts and facilitating the progress of biochemical reactions that degrade the desired pollutant.

Furthermore, microorganisms are essential for a key alternative solution to overcome environmental pollution. They serve as significant pollutant removal tools in soil, water, and sediments, primarily due to their advantage over other remediation procedural protocols.

Certain species of bacteria have evolved to degrade plastics into harmless by-products. There is a strong correlation between the microbial potential to degrade plastics and the content of global plastic pollution. The biochemical pathways that allow certain microbes to break down plastics into less harmful byproducts have been studied to develop a suitable anti-pollutant.

Over 90 microorganisms, including bacteria and fungi, are known to degrade petroleum-based plastics.

Role of Microorganisms in the Decomposition of Organic Waste: Microorganisms play a crucial role in the decomposition of organic waste. They are involved in the degradation, eradication, immobilization, or detoxification of diverse chemical wastes and physically hazardous materials from the surrounding environment through the comprehensive action of microorganisms.

Microorganisms act through their enzymatic pathways as biocatalysts, facilitating the progress of biochemical reactions that degrade the desired pollutants.

The nutritional capacity of microorganisms is highly diverse, making them useful for bioremediation of environmental pollutants. They restore the original natural surroundings and prevent further pollution.

Microorganisms also serve as significant pollutant removal tools in soil, water, and sediments, primarily due to their advantage over other remediation procedural protocols.

I agree with Abdelhak Maghchichethat microbial organisms transform the substance through metabolic or enzymatic processes. It is based on two processes: growth and co metabolism. In growth, an organic pollutant is used as sole source of carbon and energy. This process results in a complete degradation of organic pollutants. However, micro-organisms such as bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes–even though they go unnoticed in your compost pile–are responsible for most of the organic material breakdown. They are chemical decomposers because they use chemicals in their bodies to break down organic matter. The most significant effect of the microbes on earth is their ability to recycle the primary elements that make up all living systems, especially carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen. Primary production involves photosynthetic organisms which take up CO2 from the atmosphere and convert it to organic material. One of the major natural roles of microbes is assisting in the process of decomposition. Microbes naturally facilitate the breakdown of organic material that is an essential process in the life cycle. Because it is their naturally evolved function, microbes are very good at facilitating decomposition. By far the most important microscopic decomposers are bacteria, which do the lion's share of decomposition in the compost heap. But there are other microscopic creatures such as actinomycetes, fungi, and protozoa that also play an important role.
