Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
The present study attempts to identify the sources of Cr(VI) in a coastal alluvial fan soil and soil from a chromite mine. In addition investigates the effect of photochemically oxidized organic matter in the Cr(VI) mobilization in soil. The alluvial bulk soil samples contain several evidence of...Read more

In-situ bioremediation of groundwater polluted with Cr(VI) under anaerobic conditions

Galani A., Anastopoulou P., Noutsopoulos C., (Corresponding) Mamais D.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
The natural capacity of several microbes to reduce Cr(VI) to Cr(III) has been considered of much interest in order to remediate soil and groundwater polluted with Cr(VI). The objective of this work is to evaluate the enhancement of the activity of indigenous Cr(VI) reducing bacteria by the addition...Read more
