BIOGEOCHEMICAL TRANSFORMATION HANDBOOK
Darlington, R. and H. Rectanus.
TR-NAVFAC EXWC-EV-1601, 41 pp, 2015
In situ biogeochemical transformation (ISBGT) is the transformation of contaminants by highly reduced iron minerals formed by microbial activity. ISBGT processes result in the degradation of contaminants through combined biological, mineral, and chemical pathways. This handbook provides a resource for evaluating, selecting, and implementing the technology. The handbook presents the fundamentals of ISBGT in a question and answer format; explores the mechanisms that contribute to ISBGT processes; discusses contaminants that can be degraded by ISBGT; identifies key considerations for enhancing, monitoring, and evaluating ISGBT processes; and emphasizes the importance of site characterization in recognizing and accounting for the contributions of ISBGT to natural attenuation. http://www.navfac.navy.mil/content/dam/navfac/Specialty%20Centers/Engineering%20and%20Expeditionary%20Warfare%20Center/Environmental/Restoration/er_pdfs/b/navfacexwc-ev-tr-1601-biogeochem-hbk-2015.pdf
