description abstractThe industrial solvent trichloroethylene (TCE) is among the most ubiquitous chlorinated compounds found in groundwater contamination. The objective of this pilot-scale study was to evaluate the effectiveness of an in situ reductive dechlorination process to remediate TCE-contaminated groundwater at a TCE-spill site using specific gene analysis. An injection well was installed inside the TCE plume for substrate and inocula injection. Brown sugar and anaerobic activated sludge (collected from an industrial wastewater-treatment plant with influent containing TCE) as electron donor (primary substrate) and inocula, respectively, were injected to enhance the TCE biodegradation rate through anaerobic reductive dechlorination. Three monitor wells were installed downgradient of the injection well along the groundwater flow path to monitor the TCE degradation trend. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analytical results reveal that the major TCE degrader (
