Konark Biosciences is in the field of environmental bioremediation. In the last 50 years bioremediation research has made leaps and bounds that have caused this technology to become one of the most cost effective and publicly accepted methods of cleanup worldwide.

Bioremediation is a natural process where specific micro organisms (microbes) are used to transform harmful substances into simple and environmentally safe molecules like carbon-di-oxide, water, etc.

Bioremediation thus involves destroying hazardous substances instead of merely transferring them from one medium to another.
