Project Overview
The Bioremediation Working Group of the Remediation Technologies Development
Forum is a consortium including General Electric, Beak International,
Ciba-Geigy, Dow, DuPont, ICI Americas, Novartis, Zeneca, DOE, the U.S.
Air Force and the EPA. Each partner in the consortium brings expertise
as well as resources to conduct studies on the effectiveness of
bioremediation in degrading contaminants in soil. Reactive Transport in
Three Dimensions (RT3D) software is based on the premise that bioremediation
processes can be designed and controlled like other chemical processes and
is now being using for natural attenuation evaluation at several government
and industrial chlorinated ethenes contaminated sites. Users simply enter
the site-specific information to simulate the contaminant plume in the ground
water and can then evaluate various bioremediation options.
