Aerobic Microcosm Testing

---

Aerobic microcosm tests are carried out to determine the potential for co-metabolic and non-cometabolic oxidation of solvents and petroleum:

• Co-metabolic oxidation of TCE, DCE, VC, chloroethane, mono-chlorobenzene.
• Co-metabolic oxidation of low concentrations of VC (e.g. 2 ug/L) using aerobic ethenotrophic bacateria.
• Aerobic degradation of tri, di, and mono-chlorobenzenes.
• Biodegradation of 1,2-dichloroethane as a carbon and energy source.
• Biodegradation of cis-dichloroethene
• Biodegradation of all forms of petroleum
• Biodegradation of ether compounds such as 1,4-dioxane and MTBE.
