| Abstract | BIOSIS COPYRIGHT: BIOL ABS. Determination of the degradation potentials for a mixture of eight organic trace contaminants (benzene, toluene, o-xylene, naphthalene, tetrachloromethane, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, trichloroethene, tetrachloroethene) has been made by specially developed in situ microcosms under aerobic and anaerobic aquifer conditions. The developed in situ microcosms allowed for determination of the degradation potentials in the aquifer as represented by the combined groundwater and sediment and by the groundwater only. Six out of eight microcosms functioned hydraulically well as determined by means of a hydraulic tracer. Control experiments showed that the in situ microcosms were not as determined by means of a hydraulic tracer. Control experiments showed that the in situ microcosms were not subject to unaccounted losses of the contaminants except from sorption to sediment in the beginning of the experiments. All compounds were studied at initial concentrations of approximately 120 mug/l |
