Evaluating the sustainability of monitored natural attenuation in groundwater at chlorinated ethene contaminated sites
… between the sites is the existence of a mature chlorinated ethene groundwater plume and the use of MNA as the long-term remediation strategy. Constituent specific NAC values were quantified and statistically examined to determine past performance of MNA at the sites. A conceptual decision model …

Investigating the Biostimulating Effects of ESO Addition to a TCE Contaminated Site
Remediation of chlorinated ethene contaminated sites presents a problem for the environmental industry. Many innovative technologies exist to remove these chemicals from the subsurface; however, most of these technologies require extensive time and incur significant cost. A technology called …

Spatial Relationships Between Potential Bioavailable Organic Carbon and Sediment Grain Size at a Chlorinated Solvent-Contaminated Site
Chlorinated ethenes are considered one of the most prevalent sources of groundwater contamination in developed countries. Natural attenuation of chlorinated ethenes is possible through the process of microbial reductive dechlorination. Reductive dechlorination can occur in contaminated aquifers …

Isolation and Ecology of Bacterial Populations Involved in Reductive Dechlorination of Chlorinated Solvents
… involved in complete reductive detoxification of chlorinated ethenes and are widely distributed in anoxic sediments and aquifers, including non-contaminated (pristine) environments. Careful examination of enrichment culture dechlorination kinetics, 16S rRNA gene based analyses, and reductive …

The effects of Fe(III) reduction on biodegradation of fuel oxygenates and chlorinated ethenes
… ether (MTBE) and tert-butyl alcohol (TBA), and chlorinated ethenes (TCE, cis-DCE and VC) are two groups of contaminants prevalent in groundwater systems. Fe(III) reducing conditions are dominant in many sedimentary environments. However, the effects of Fe(III) reduction on biotransformation of …

Microcosms and field bioremediation studies of Perchloroethene (PCE) contaminated soil and groundwater
… and natural sources. The most common chlorinated solvents present as contaminants include tetrachloroethylene (PCE, perchloroethene), trichloroethene (TCE), trichloroethane (TCA), and carbon tetrachloride (CT). These chlorinated solvents are problematic because of their health hazards …

Degradation of Chlorinated Hydrocarbons in Groundwater Passing Through the Treatment Wetland at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base: Analysis of Results Collected During 2001-'06
… are an efficient and cost effective means for chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbon remediation, and will therefore continue to gain momentum as an accepted treatment by the US EPA (U.S. EPA, 1995; Amarante, 2000; Lien, 2001; WETPOL, 2009). The treatment options for chlorinated aliphatic …
