The ability to inoculate a PCE-NAPL source zone with no prior dechlorinating activity was examined using a near field-scale simulated aquifer. A known mass of PCE was added to establish a source zone, and the groundwater was depleted of oxygen using acetate and lactate prior to culture addition. An active and stable dechlorinating culture was used as an inoculum, and dechlorination activity was observed within 2 weeks following culture transfer. PCE reduction to TCE and cis-DCE was observed initially, and the formation of these compounds was accelerated by the addition of a long-term source of hydrogen (Hydrogen Releasing Compound). cis-DCE was the predominant chlorinated ethene present in the effluent after 225 days of operation, and production of VC and ethene lagged the formation of TCE and cis-DCE. However, dechlorination extent continued to improve over time, and VC eventually became a major product, suggesting that reinoculation was unnecessary. The detection of Dehalococcoides species in the source culture and in the simulated aquifer postinoculation indicated that the metabolic capability to dechlorinate beyond cis-DCE (t = 86 days and t = 245 days) was present. Elevated levels of TCE and cis-DCE were present in the source zone, but neither VC nor ethene were detected in the vicinity of NAPL. The results of this research indicated that adding dechlorinating cultures maybe useful in the application of source zone bioremediation but that dechlorination beyond cis-DCE may be limited to regions downgradient of the source zone.
