abstract：:The success of in situ bioremediation is often limited by the inability to bring bacteria in contact with the pollutant, which they will degrade. A bench-scale model aquifer was used to evaluate the impact of chemotaxis on the migration of bacteria toward the source of a chemical pollutant. The model was packed with s...
