This award request is intended as support for advanced academic research and applied studies in the multidisciplinary topic of enhanced in situ biorestoration of hazardous waste contaminated terrestrial, aquatic and marine environments. The proposal addresses the need for: (1) the fundamental factors controlling biodegradation of toxic organics; (2) how combinations of anaerobic and aerobic treatment can be used to compliment each other; (3) in situ detoxification of mixed-type contaminants using local microbiology treatment; and (4) low-cost, efficient in-ground remediation of recalcitrant toxicants, including trace metals removal and recovery of metal values. The purpose of this research project is to employ modern techniques from basic and applied research areas to elucidate the chemical mechanisms of microbial ecology responsible for detoxifying anthropogenic contaminants in the environment.

该奖项申请旨在支持在陆地、水生和海洋环境受污染的危险废物的加强就地生物恢复这一多学科主题方面的高级学术研究和应用研究。该提案解决了以下需求：(1)控制有毒有机物生物降解的基本因素；(2)厌氧与好氧处理的组合如何相互补充；(3)就地微生物处理混合型污染物就地脱毒；(4)低成本、高效的顽固性毒物的地下修复，包括微量金属的去除和金属值的回收。本研究项目的目的是利用基础研究和应用研究领域的现代技术，阐明微生物生态解毒环境中人为污染物的化学机制。
