Description:
This technology uses a slurry-phase bioreactor in which the soil is mixed with water to form a slurry. Microorganisms and nutrients are added to the slurry to enhance the biodegradation process, which converts organic wastes into relatively harmless byproducts of microbial metabolism and inorganic salts. Figure 1 is a schematic of a slurry biodegradation process.
