Comparison Between Model Simulations and Pilot Results for In-Situ Cometabolism of Trichloroethylene by Toluene-Utilizing Bacteria / 甲苯馴養菌現地好氧共代謝三氯乙烯數值模式與現地試驗之比較

碩士 / 國立成功大學 / 資源工程學系碩博士班 / 97 / A nonsteady-state model is presented and used in simulating the results of in-situ pilot experiments where trichloroethylene (TCE) was cometabolically degraded by toluene-utilizing bacteria. The model includes microbial processes of microbial growth, metabolism of the primary substrate (toluene), and the cometabolic transformation of TCE with the transport processes of advection, dispersion, and sorption onto the aquifer solids. Model simulations of TCE removal agreed well with the pilot observations. The first-order constant of TCE-biodegradation rate was around 0.2 to 0.3 L/mg-day derived from model fits to the pilot observations. The model was useful in distinguishing the TCE removals contributed by biodegradation and sorption processes, respectively. While sorption was the controlling process at the beginning, the cometabolic transformation process eventually became dominant for TCE removal after establishing a
toluene-degrading consortium.
