What enzymes Are Involved in Aerobic Bioremediation of PCE and TCE?

CL-Out aerobic bioremediation PCE and TCE is a sustainable process for soil and ground water remediation.  As these compounds are not directly metabolized under aerobic conditions, the competitive advantage goes to the CL-Out organisms that cometabolize them.  While utilizing a sugar substrate, the CL-Out organisms produce  mono- and dioxygenase  enzymes that bridge the carbon bond to destabilize the compound.   The solvent is converted to an organic acid that the organism can metabolize.  View the degradation pathway.  The benefit is that CL-Out bioremediation can be applied to soils both in situ and ex situ.  Click here for to download a case study.  For further explanation call CL Solutions at 513-284-5940.
