Over the last few decades, there has been increased demand for seafood by consumers, which hasnecessitated the development of novel strategies for enhanced production of aquaculture. However, environmental and health challenges are increasingworldwide which are recognized as significant constraints on aquaculture production andtrade. Indiscriminate use of chemicals in agriculture, and industrial effluents adverselyaffect the aquaculture and related environment. Removing the chemical contaminants, from the environment is a difficult task. Therefore, various strategies to remediate the chemical contaminants are being looked into. In this context, bioremediation or the utilization of microorganisms to clean up these contaminants from apolluted environment has appeared as a promising strategy for removing and/or decreasing the effect of the contaminants. Recent advancements made in this field of research are discussed in this chapter.Not Availabl
