Description:

This report summarizes the findings of the second evaluation of the J.R. Simplot Ex-situ Bioremediation Technology also known as the Simplot Anaerobic Bioremediation (SABRE™) process. This technology was developed by the J.R. Simplot Company to biologically degrade nitroaromatic and energetic compounds. The first evaluation was performed using soil contaminated with dinoseb, an agricultural herbicide. The second evaluation, and subject of this report, demonstrated the effectiveness of the process on the biodegradation of soil contaminated with 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (TNT). These evaluations were conducted under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation (SITE) Program.
