Imagine that biostimulation is used on a widespread scale for a bioremediation project.

What ecosystem changes represent a potential side effect of the cleanup efforts?

The biostimulation can be define as the process of modifying the environment by the stimulating the growth of bacteria which are capable of conducting the bioremediation. The bioremediation is the process through which the microorganisms are used to break down and decomposed the environmental pollutants from the polluted site.

This can be achieved through addition of the nutrients and electrons acceptors like nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and carbon in the from of molasses. These factors are likely to enhance the growth of the bacteria to an extent that can damage the organisms of the ecosystem or the growth factors can be also suitable for the growth of other microorganisms which may infect the other living beings of the ecosystem.
