Chlorinated solvents such as trichloroethylene, vinyl chloride                  and chloroform are widespread, persistent contaminants in the                   environment.  These compounds have been shown to be readily                     biodegradable by methane-oxidizing bacteria.  We propose to                     design and field test a pilot scale innovative biological                       treatment system, utilizing these bacteria in a Rotating                        Biological Contractor (RBC).  The RBC will provide maximum gas                  transfer (methane and oxygen) to the organisms to bring about the               breakdown of the chlorinated compounds by co-oxidation.  This                   approach will have broad applications in the treatment of waste                 waters, ground waters and leachates contaminated with                           trichloroethylene and other chlorinated solvents.
