Title: The Use of Enhanced Bioremediation at the Savannah River Site to Remediate Pesticides and PCBs

Journal Article · · Remediation
OSTI ID:816197

Enhanced bioremediation is quickly developing into an economical and viable technology for the remediation of contaminated soils. Until recently, chlorinated organic compounds have proven difficult to bioremediate. This article reviews the ongoing remediation occurring at the Chemicals, Metals, and Pesticides (CMP) Pits using windrow turners to facilitate microbial degradation of certain pesticides and PCBs.
