Abstract
Bio films are the thick dense masses of bacterial or algal cells that are commonly found on the stagnant water bodies or moist localities. Most of the biofilms are proved to be beneficial to the environment and are ecofriendly. These biofilms are responsible for the bioremediation of its substrate thereby maintaining the pollution free environment.The current work aims to isolate and identify the normal habitat of biofilm, once the identification is performed than the same bacteria can be employed in bioremediation process
