Abstract
The in-situ remediation of aquifers contaminated with halogenated aliphatic compounds is a promising alternative in efforts to protect ground water. The report presents the experimental methodology and the initial results of a field experiment evaluating the feasibility of in-situ biotransformation of TCE and related compounds. The method being tested relies on the ability of methane-oxidizing bacteria to degrade these contaminants to stable end products. The test zone is a shallow, confined aquifer located at the Moffett Naval Air Station, Mountain View, California.
