Burning question: Rethinking organohalide degradation strategy for bioremediation applications
This review specifically focuses on the novel solution of organohalide bioremediation, proposing redox‐potential‐mediated hybrid bioprocesses tailored to the complexities of organohalide pollution. Abstract Organohalides are widespread pollutants that pose significant environmental hazards due to their high degree of halogenation and elevated redox ...

Evaluation of Silicate Minerals for pH Control During Bioremediation: Application to Chlorinated Solvents [PDF]
Accurate control of groundwater pH is of critical importance for in situ biological treatment of chlorinated solvents. This study evaluated a novel approach for buffering subsurface pH that relies on the use of silicate minerals as a long-term source of ...

Abstract Lacustrine carbonates are a powerful archive of paleoenvironmental information but are susceptible to post‐depositional alteration. Microbial metabolisms can drive such alteration by changing carbonate saturation in situ, thereby driving dissolution or precipitation.

Molecular insights intocobalamin-dependent enzyme systemsfrom organohalide-respiring bacteria [PDF]
The evolution of microorganisms over millions of years has led to an impressive adaptability regarding the utilisation of different environmental conditions. The identification of bacterial species with the fascinating features to use cobalamin-dependent metalloenzymes to (i) extract energy from halogenated organic compounds (organohalides) and (ii ...
