Abstract

Evaluates the efficiency of a biological process to reduce perchlorate concentrations of up to 1,000 micrograms per liter to levels of 4 - 18 micrograms per liter. Also evaluates the impact of co-contaminants on process performance, characterizes process effluents, and defines post treatment requirements. Includes pilot-scale testing. Published in 2004.
