The effects of Fe(III) reduction on biodegradation of fuel oxygenates and chlorinated ethenes
Fuel oxygenates, methyl tert-butyl 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) …

Biodegradation of Fuel Oxygenates in Northeastern United States Aquifers with an Analysis of Underground Storage Tank Leaks
<p>During the past decade the application of monitored natural attenuation has become one of the predominant technologies used in the remediation of gasoline spills impacting subsurface soils and groundwater. The success of this method has depended, for the most part, on the biodegradation of those …

Disinfectants and Plumbing Materials: Effects on the Sensory and Chemical Characteristics of Drinking Water
… analysis revealed that PEX pipes can contribute fuel oxygenates such as ETBE (PEX-b) and possibly MTBE (PEX-a) to drinking water. PEX pipes did not contribute any significant trihalomethanes to drinking water. This study showed that the type of PEX used in homes will determine the extent to which …
