Abstract:
:A denitrifying consortium capable of transforming carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) was cultured from aquifer sediment from the U.S. Department of Energy's Hanford Site in southeastern Washington State. To understand the kinetics of the biological destruction of CCl(4) by these microbes, a set of experiments, the conditions of which were chosen according to a fractional factorial experimental design, were completed. This article reports on the experimental design along with the results for CCl(4), biomass, acetate, nitrate, and nitrite concentrations. These data indicate that growth is inhibited by high nitrite concentrations, whereas CCl(4) degradation is slowed by the presence of nitrate and/or nitrite. (c) 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
