The objective of this research was to evaluate several factors affecting the performance of a two-stage treatment system employing methane-oxidizing bacteria for trichloroethylene (TCE) biodegradation. The system consists of a completely mixed growth reactor and a plug-flow transformation reactor in
The rates of methane utilization and trichloroethylene (TCE) cometabolism by a methanotrophic mixed culture were characterized in batch and pseudo-steady-state studies. Procedures for determination of the rate coefficients and their uncertainties by fitting a numerical model to experimental data are
