Bioremediation is a more ecofriendly and economical technique as compared to chemical or physical removal of toxic pollutants from the contaminated soil or water. However, certain contradictory results for bioaugmentation and biostimulation have been obtained, these two techniques of bioremediation hold the potential of exemplifying in‐situ bioremediation. These techniques are very distinct from each other but are used as complementary techniques for the decontamination of oil spills and other severely contaminated sites. The necessary requirements for bioremediation processes like the presence of competent microbes, nutrients, and suitable environmental conditions must be determined by laboratory and field trials. It has been clearly indicated that bioaugmentation and biostimulation are extremely efficient in‐situ remediation techniques. However, data prediction depends mainly upon the environmental conditions and thus finding appropriate microorganisms and suitable environmental conditions for each polluted site is perhaps the best solution.
