2002 Henry Darcy Lecture Series - David Hyndman (part 2)
Channel: National Ground Water Association

David Hyndman lectured on "Efficient Large-Scale Bioremediation in a Heterogeneous Aquifer: The Schoolcraft Bioaugmentation Experiment." The presentation discussed how groundwater flow and contaminant transport models can be used both to design bioremediation systems and to evaluate the influence of heterogeneities on contaminant fate and transport. The Schoolcraft bioremediation system, which was developed as a multidisciplinary collaborative research effort between hydrogeologists, microbiologists, and environmental engineers, has achieved greater than 95 percent remediation efficiency over a period of three years.
