| Abstract | Chlorinated ethenes such as tetrachloroethene and trichloroethene have been widely used as dry-cleaning and degreasing solvents. Under anaerobic conditions, microorganisms reduce these parent compounds to less-chlorinated daughter products such as cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cDCE), and often further to ethene. This process can be stalled at cDCE, due to insufficient supply of reductants and/or inadequate microbial-community composition. Recently, a novel bacterium, Polaromonas sp. JS666, was isolated that is able to aerobically oxidize cDCE as sole carbon and energy source. As such, it is a promising candidate for use as a subsurface, bioaugmentation agent at sites where anaerobic bioremediation is inappropriate or has stalled and cDCE has migrated to, and accumulated within, aerobic zones, or where it is practical to impose aerobic conditions. |
