  • Microbial remediation of halogenated compounds via chain elongation and dehalogenation
    Patent number: 12649677
    Abstract: A system for environmental remediation of halogenated compounds such as chlorinated solvents is presented, the system comprising at least one bacterial strain capable of microbial chain elongation; at least one bacterial strain capable of reductive dehalogenation; and an alcohol. Also presented is a method remediating an environmental sample, the method comprising the steps of: providing a remediation composition; and treating an environmental sample comprising at least one chlorinated pollutant with the remediation composition; wherein the remediation composition comprises at least one bacterial strain capable of microbial chain elongation; at least one bacterial strain capable of reductive dehalogenation; and at least one bacterial strain capable of fermentation.
