Attachment/detachment and trichloroethylene degradation-longevity of a resting cell Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b filter

Abstract: We are investigating a methanotrophic filter strategy for the in situ bioremediation of low levels of chlorinated aliphatic, volatile organic chemicals (VOCs). It is based on the use of pregrown, resting cells, instead of growth‐nutrient stimulations. The economic feasibility of such a filter is dependent on its operational longevity at ground‐water temperatures. The latter, in turn, is dependent on several key parameters, such as the bacterial attachment densities reached during the injection of the microbial… Show more

“…The maximum attached population was calculated from mass balance considerations to be 379 × 10 6 particles. The specific attachment was 55 × 10 9 m Ð2 , which compares to the 30 × 10 9 m -2 observed in porous media experiments at the same ionic strength (Hanna and Taylor, 1996). Even though the breakthrough curves were similar, particle transport through the naturally fractured core was significantly different from that through the parallel-plate core (Figure 6-48).…”

“…Much of the research on transport of bacteria through rocks and sediments has been conducted on porous media (e.g., Bales et al, 1989;Hanna and Taylor, 1996;Ryan and Elimelech, 1996;Tan et al, 1994). For this discussion, the detailed information in the literature is summarized into two main points:…”
