Pilot-scale evaluation of bioaugmentation for in-situ remediation of a carbon tetrachloride-contaminated aquifer

Article Abstract:

Investigations into the effectivity of bioaugmentation in treating a carbon tetrachloride-contaminated aquifer showed that sustaining the population of the microbial population is the key to the effective removal of carbon tetrachloride. This is shown by the halt in carbon tetrachloride degradation once the population of Pseudomonas stutzeri KC was not supported by acetate-amended groundwater which was necessary to maintain the pH of the contaminated aquifer needed to sustain the bacterial population.

Low-molecular weight dicarboxylic acids and glyoxylic acid: seasonal and air mass characteristics

Article Abstract:

Dicarboxylic and oxomonocarboxylic acids are studied in urban and rural areas of Germany. Using chromatography and filter sampling, the summer season and air mass movements are found to favor occurrence of these acids. Accompanying charts and graphs provide additional statistical data.
