Endosulfan is a highly polluting and toxic pesticide which has been used in many areas
globally to control pests in view to improve productivity. Concomitantly, endosulfan has also …

Contamination of aquifers and vadose zones with chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAH)
is a world-wide issue. Unlike other reactions, direct aerobic oxidation (DAO) of CAHs does …

Organic and inorganic chlorine compounds are formed by a broad range of natural
geochemical, photochemical and biological processes. In addition, chlorine compounds are …

Remediation of toxic chlorinated ethenes via microbial reductive dechlorination can lead to
ethene formation; however, the process stalls in acidic groundwater, leading to the …

Chlorinated solvents still represent an environmental concern that requires sustainable and
innovative bioremediation strategies. This study describes the microbiome composition of a …

Volatilization of lower-chlorinated polychlorinated biphenyls (LC-PCBs) from sediment
poses health threats to nearby communities and ecosystems. Biodegradation combined with …

Chlorinated ethene contamination is a worldwide relevant health issue. In anaerobic
aquifers, highly chlorinated ethenes are transformed by microbially-mediated organohalide …

Bioremediation of vinyl chloride (VC) contamination in groundwater could be mediated by
three major bacterial guilds: anaerobic VC-dechlorinators, methanotrophs, and ethene …

Vinyl chloride (VC) is a carcinogen generated in groundwater by reductive dechlorination of
chloroethenes. Under aerobic conditions, etheneotrophs oxidize ethene and VC, while VC …

In the present study, the sequential reductive/oxidative bioelectrochemical process has been
tested with real groundwater from a contaminated site in Northern Italy for chlorinated …
