Untersuchung zum mikrobiellen Abbau von polychlorierten Dibenzo-p-dioxinen und Dibenzofuranen (PCDD/F) in Boeden mittels reduktiver Dechlorierung und aerober Mineralisierung

The work had the objective to develop a biological method for cleaning up PCDD/PCDF contaminated upper soil layers (PCDDs/PCDFs: polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans). Since highly chlorinated aromatic compounds persist in soil under aerobic conditions, reductive dechlorination of the compounds under anaerobic conditions was aimed at in a first phase of the project. A second, topped phase was destined for aerobic mineralization of the dechlorinated matrices. The tests were carried out on three farmland soils following long-term contamination with PCDDs/PCDFs.
