Abstract

Biosurfactants are structurally diverse and heterogeneous groups of surface-active amphipathic molecules. Owing to their capability to reduce surface and interfacial tension, they have a wide range of industrial and environmental applications. The present chapter reviews the most recent results obtained in the production technologies, optimization methods, recovery of biosurfactants, and their many different application fields.
