Apparatus and method for phosphate-accelerated bioremediation

Patent Looney, Brian B [Aiken, SC]; Pfiffner, Susan M [Knoxville, TN]; Phelps, Tommy J [Knoxville, TN]; ...

An apparatus and method for supplying a vapor-phase nutrient to contaminated soil for in situ bioremediation. The apparatus includes a housing adapted for containing a quantity of the liquid nutrient, a conduit in communication with the interior of the housing, means for causing a gas to flow through the conduit, and means for contacting the gas with the liquid so that a portion thereof evaporates and mixes with the gas. The mixture of gas and nutrient vapor is delivered to the contaminated site via a system of injection and extraction wells configured to the site and provides for the usemore » « less

Method for in situ or ex situ bioremediation of hexavalent chromium contaminated soils and/or groundwater

Patent Turick, Charles E [Idaho Falls, ID]; Apel, William W [Idaho Falls, ID]

A method of reducing the concentration of Cr(VI) in a liquid aqueous residue comprises the steps of providing anaerobic Cr(VI) reducing bacteria, mixing the liquid aqueous residue with a nutrient medium to form a mixture, and contacting the mixture with the anaerobic Cr(VI) reducing bacteria such that Cr(VI) is reduced to Cr(III). The anaerobic Cr(VI) reducing bacteria appear to be ubiquitous in soil and can be selected by collecting a soil sample, diluting the soil sample with a sterile diluent to form a diluted sample, mixing the diluted sample with an effective amount of a nutrient medium and an effectivemore » « less
