✦ Synopsis

The potential of microbial degradation of PCB in contaminated actual site soil was investigated by incubation in percolation columns for 10 months. The addition of traces of mineral salts and nutrients resulted in a significant increase of the degradation of PCB congeners up to 5 Cl-atoms caused by the naturally occurring bacteria in the soil matrix. If only tap water was recycled the degree of PCB degradation was negligible.

The published microbial degradation rates of nineteen polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) were correlated with their structure and properties. A Free-Wilson-like calculation of the de novo binding energy contributions of the chlorine substituents was applied, considering simultaneous realization of up t
