Description:

Bench and pilot-scale studies were conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of using solid-phase biodegradation for destroying portions of organic constituents present in the soil. The predominant constituents at the BRIO DOP site located in Texas were volatile compounds such as: methylene chloride, 15-17,000 ppb; 1,2-dichloroethane, 25-195,000 ppb; 1,1,2-trichloroethane, 25-195,000 ppb. Semivolatile compounds were present in lower concentrations: phenanthrene, 1,392-15,083 ppb; anthracene and fluorene, 440-563 ppb (single samples only).
