Journal ArticleDOI
Stimulating the in situ activity of Geobacter species to remove uranium from the groundwater of a uranium-contaminated aquifer.
Robert T. Anderson,Helen A. Vrionis,Irene Ortiz-Bernad,Charles T. Resch,Philip E. Long,Richard Dayvault,Ken Karp,Sam Marutzky,Donald R. Metzler,Aaron D. Peacock,David C. White,Mary Lowe,Derek R. Lovley +12 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that in situ bioremediation of uranium-contaminated groundwater is feasible but suggest that the strategy should be optimized to better maintain long-term activity of Geobacter species.

TL;DR: Results suggest that Geobacter spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anaerobic Benzene Oxidation in the Fe(III) Reduction Zone of Petroleum-Contaminated Aquifers
TL;DR: The potential for anaerobic benzene oxidation in the Fe(III)-reduction zone of petroleum-contaminated aquifers was evaluated in this article, where benzene was not oxidized to 14CO2 at most sites examined, which is consistent with previous studies that have found that benzene tends to persist in unamended, anaerobically degraded aquifer materials and/or long periods of time are required in order to adapt the microbial population for benzene degradation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential for Bioremediation of Uranium-Contaminated Aquifers with Microbial U(VI) Reduction
TL;DR: In this article, the potential for bioremediation of Uranium-Contaminated aquifers with Microbial U(VI) reduction is discussed, and the authors propose a method to reduce the UVI level of the aquifer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enrichment of Geobacter Species in Response to Stimulation of Fe(III) Reduction in Sandy Aquifer Sediments.
TL;DR: The apparent growth of Geobacter species concurrent with increased Fe(III) reduction suggests that Geobacteria species were responsible for much of the Fe( III) reduction in all of the stimulation approaches evaluated in three geographically distinct aquifers.
