Feasibility Tests

Is biological soil and groundwater remediation
(biorestoration) a viable option?

Investigation program

Identification of current microbial activity in soil and groundwater

Identification of existing and possible constraints for bioremediation

Assessment of technical options to remove remediation constraints

Determination of biological kinetics

Determination of maximum achievable biodegradation rates

Evaluation of bioremediation options including "natural attenuation"

Assessment of natural attenuation stabilisation vector

Assessment of biorestoration implementation and monitoring strategy

Definition of end-point scenario
