'Bioremediation' as a Removal Response Action at OPA Sites
This paper describes the "Bioremediation", implemented as a removal response action at certain OPA Sites in EPA Region III. This process utilizes simple yet effective techniques and locally available equipment and materials to accelerate the process of intrinsic bioremediation, aggressively incorporating the natural attenuation processes of biodegradation, adsorption, dispersion, and...
