Verified step by step guidance1
Bioremediation is a process that uses living organisms, typically microorganisms, to degrade environmental pollutants into less harmful forms.
In the context of organic chemistry, bioremediation often involves the use of bacteria or fungi to break down complex organic compounds, such as hydrocarbons found in oil spills.
The hydrogenation of alkenes to form alkanes is a chemical reaction involving the addition of hydrogen, not involving living organisms.
The synthesis of aspirin from salicylic acid is a chemical synthesis process, not involving living organisms for degradation.
The polymerization of ethylene to form polyethylene is a chemical process to create polymers, not involving living organisms for degradation.
