Mathematical Modeling of Reductive Transformation Kinetics of Branched Degradation Pathways of Groundwater Contaminants

Groundwater contaminants such as chlorinated ethenes, chlorinated ethanes and nitroaromatic explosive compounds (e.g. 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (TNT)) degrade in the subsurface primarily by microbially catalyzed reductive transformation reactions. From a regulatory point of view, the capability to simul...
