Carbon isotope effects in the sorption of chlorinated ethenes on biochar and activated carbon [PDF]
As an alternative to activated carbon, biochar is a promising, environmentally friendly sorbent that can be used to remove organic groundwater pollutants, such as chlorinated ethenes (CEs).

Dehalogenation of Chlorinated Ethenes to Ethene by a Novel Isolate, "Candidatus Dehalogenimonas etheniformans". [PDF]
Chlorinated ethenes are risk drivers at many contaminated sites, and current bioremediation efforts focus on organohalide-respiring Dehalococcoides mccartyi strains to achieve detoxification. We isolated and characterized the first non- Dehalococcoides bacterium, “ Candidatus

Photocatalytic degradation of chlorinated ethenes
Degradation of three chlorinated ethenes, trichloroethylene, trans-1,2-dichloroethylene and cis-1,2-dichloroethylene, by UV-light irradiated TiO2 catalyst prepared by the sol-gel method in dry air at ambient temperature have been examined by using FTIR ...

Dual Element (C/Cl) Isotope Analysis Indicates Distinct Mechanisms of Reductive Dehalogenation of Chlorinated Ethenes and Dichloroethane in Dehalococcoides mccartyi Strain BTF08 With Defined Reductive Dehalogenase Inventories [PDF]
Dehalococcoides mccartyi strain BTF08 has the unique property to couple complete dechlorination of tetrachloroethene and 1,2-dichloroethane to ethene with growth by using the halogenated compounds as terminal electron acceptor. The genome of strain BTF08

Normalized Quantitative PCR Measurements as Predictors for Ethene Formation at Sites Impacted with Chlorinated Ethenes. [PDF]
Quantitative PCR (qPCR) targeting Dehalococcoides mccartyi ( Dhc) biomarker genes supports effective management at sites impacted with chlorinated ethenes. To establish correlations between Dhc biomarker gene abundances and ethene formation (i.e., detoxification), 859 groundwater samples representing 62 sites undergoing monitored natural attenuation or

Abiotic degradation of chlorinated ethanes and ethenes in water [PDF]
Chlorinated ethanes and ethenes are among the most frequently detected organic pollutants of water. Their physicochemical properties are such that they can contaminate aquifers for decades. In favourable conditions, they can undergo degradation. In anaerobic conditions, chlorinated solvents can undergo reductive dechlorination.Abiotic dechlorination is

Chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) and 1,4-dioxane kinetics and equilibrium adsorption studies on selective macrocyclic adsorbents [PDF]
Chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) are often found in combination with 1,4-dioxane which has been used as a solvent stabilizer. It would be desirable to separate these compounds since biodegradation of 1,4-dioxane follows an aerobic pathway ...

Effect of temperature on microbial reductive dehalogenation of chlorinated ethenes: a review
AbstractTemperature is a key factor affecting microbial activity and ecology. An increase in temperature generally increases rates of microbial processes up to a certain threshold, above which rates decline rapidly. In the subsurface, temperature of groundwater is usually stable and related to the annual average temperature at the surface.
