Mass-Transfer-Limited Biodegradation at Low Concentrations.Evidence from Reactive Transport Modeling of Isotope Profiles in a Bench-Scale Aquifer

Fengchao Sun et al.

Summary: Research shows that isotope fractionation decreases significantly when organic pollutant concentrations fall below a certain level, indicating that membrane transfer is slow relative to enzyme turnover. By using a reactive transport model, it is possible to identify mass transfer limitations in biodegradation, especially at low concentrations.
