Abstract

A significant health risk is associated with chlorinated hydrocarbon contamination in soils and groundwater. Microbial reductive dechlorination, one of the major pathways of chlorinated hydrocarbon degradation, has been extensively studied in anaerobic subsurface environments. The current study presents a comprehensive review and advancement related to the enhanced in-situ reductive dechlorination of chloroethenes, polychlorinated biphenyls, and chloroethenes in the recent past. Reductive dechlorination is an important pathway for dechlorination in an anaerobic environment performed by a wide group of fermentative, methanogenic, iron, and sulfate-reducing microbial populations for complete degradation of chloroethenes. Presently, the most widely used biotic remediation technologies are based on functional anaerobic bacteria. Although this technology can be used in treating hazardous contaminants yet, the problem surfaces when natural electron acceptors such as nitrates, sulphates, and bicarbonates compete with the target contaminants for electrons. Therefore, in order to accurately evaluate the effectiveness of this technology under natural hydro-chemical conditions, a thorough mechanistic overview of electron competition and electron selectivity is critical to understanding the mechanisms governing these phenomena. This review aims to provide an overview of functional microbes in eliciting in-situ biostimulation or bioaugmentation strategies that can be implemented in future research studies pertaining to this domain.

  • Microbial processes are crucial in decomposing organic pollutants, utilizing various catalytic mechanisms to break down complex chemicals into simpler, safer components.

    “Microbial processes are crucial in decomposing organic pollutants, utilizing various catalytic mechanisms to break down complex chemicals into simpler, safer components [99].”

    Section 2, “Microbially mediated dechlorination process” (page unavailable), describes microbes degrading chlorinated ethenes and PCBs by replacing chlorine atoms with hydrogen. The Introduction also describes microbial metabolism as a means of pollutant detoxification. The claim extends this account to organic pollutants generally and to various catalytic mechanisms, neither of which these passages establish. (LLM, conf=0.84)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
