Optimizing Anaerobic Bioremediation
Nutrimens® Granular, Enhancing the Efficiency of Electron Donor Utilization in Bioremediation
Bacteria are very sensitive to low pH. The optimal pH for bioremediation is between 6 and 8.5. To keep your in situ bioremediation project on track, pH should be maintained within a range where bioremediation is maximized. In general, more fermentation means more volatile fatty acid (VFA) production and lower pH. A major consequence when pH falls below 6 is a dramatic decline in enhanced reductive dechlorination.
