Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The specific objectives of this subtask are as follows: Evaluate the suitability of using humic acids to enhance the solubility and mobility of DNAPL contaminants sorbed to soils. Evaluate the toxicity and bioavailablity of the DNAPLs to biodegrading microorganisms. To meet the first objective, the Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC) evaluated a set of humic acids (two) with different chemical compositions and polarities for the following: Ability of the humates to mobilize/solubilize selected (three) DNAPLs Mobilization/solubilization in batch soil water experiments (one soil) Removal rate via biotreatment with a well-established active microbial culture. The second objective was met by evaluating the inhibiting effects of a leonardite-derived humic acid on active microbial populations.
