Kinetic and modeling investigations of the anaerobic reductive dechlorination of chlorinated ethylenes using single and binary mixed cultures and silicon-based organic compounds as slow-release substrates

Creator:

Yu, Seungho

Abstract:

This study investigated complete reductive dechlorination of chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) over a broad range of concentrations. Tetrabutoxysilane (TBOS), as a slow-release anaerobic substrate, was studied for enhanced reductive dechlorination of tetrachioroethylene (PCE) present as a dense non-aqueous liquid (DNAPL). Four different site-mixed cultures were used in the study: Site-300...
