PERSPECTIVES OF GENETICALLY ENGINEERED MICROBES FOR GROUNDWATER BIOREMEDIATION
Janssen, D.B. and G. Stucki
Environmental Science Processes & Impacts 22:487(2020)

Major technical and scientific issues of implementing genetically engineered microorganisms are illustrated in two examples: successful 1,2-DCE remediation using pump-and-treat biotreatment processes; and 1,2,3-TCP, for which protein and genetic engineering yielded effective bacterial cultures that still await application. https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlepdf/2020/em/c9em00601j?page=search
