Characterization of Microbes Capable of Using Vinyl Chloride and Ethene as Sole Carbon and Energy Sources by Anaerobic Oxidation

摘要

The background material for SERDP SON Number ERSON-07-04 notes that daughter products from reductive dechlorination of polychlorinated ethenes (including ethene and ethane) are often observed in situ, but the amounts detected are rarely sufficient to explain the disappearance of the chloroethenes, suggesting ethene may also be degraded, or that there may be alternative pathways for chloroethene degradation.'
