Bioaugmentation for Site Remediation

Robert E. Hinchee (Editor), et al / Hardcover / Published 1995
Booknews, Inc. , February 1, 1996
Deals with the controversial practice of introducing non- indigenous microorganisms for bio-remediation. The idea is that immigrant organisms might be able to degrade the target contaminant or carry out the desired reactions that elude the natives; the widespread skepticism is based on the failures and expense of the early attempts. The 28 papers describe some of the newer practices informed by principles of microbial ecology and physiology. Among the topics are laboratory studies, petroleum- contaminated soil, mobile bacteria, and alachlor mineralization by white-rot fungi. Part of an 11-volume set of 375 papers (plus index) from a 1995 symposium in San Diego; the whole set (1- 57477-001-2) is available for $449.50. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
