Abstract

Sustainable development is a concept that is based on the development of the human society without compromising the natural resources, which should improve human lives and protect the environment for future generations. The UN Agenda 2030 has set 17 goals aimed to transform the development of humanity in accordance with the environment, and with the social and economic rights. This concept is recognized as one of the most important concepts for the future international development. One of the four main pillars of the Agenda 2030 is a pillar Planet, which consists of five sustainability development goals (SDGs) aiming to clean the pollution on the Earth and set the sustainable use of the Earth’s resources. The aim of paper is to demonstrate the role of oil pollution bioremediation in achieving SDGs by assessing the importance of this technology and using microorganisms as natural capacity of the Earth for self-cleaning. This review article highlights the applicability of bioremediation as an oil pollution cleaning technique and reviews the compliance of bioremediation with the SDGs. According to this review, bioremediation techniques are an important element which can help in integrated approach to achieve several goals set by the Agenda 2030. Due to the incomplete biodegradation and co-contamination by other chemicals, further research is needed in order to make bioremediation a more effective biotechnological strategy. It is necessary to integrate the Agenda 2030 to university curricula and stream SDGs into scientific funding by opening dedicated calls that contribute to selected SDGs of the Agenda 2030.
