Biodegradation of Volatile Aromatic Hydrocarbons by Native Soil and GroundwaterMicroorganisms: Microcosm Studies

摘要

The goal of this project was twofold: to develop and test strategies forenhancing the microbial degradation of hydrocarbon contaminants in subsurface soil and groundwater, and to understand why and under what conditions these strategies can be successful. The work deals primarily with what are generally considered the highest priority contaminants, from a toxicological point of view,
