Abstract

In situ bioremediation through slow-release agents can continuously degrade organic pollutants for a long time and have high application potential in solving problems such as tailing and rebound. However, the existing evaluation system is difficult to reflect the performance of bioremediation through slow-release agents, which is not conducive to the promotion of technology. It is urgent to establish a targeted evaluation system. Therefore, based on the multi-criteria decision-making method (MCDA), a comprehensive evaluation model was established. The evaluation index system was constructed for bioremediation through slow-release agents consisting of 16 indicators including pollutant degradation rate, agent preparation cost, engineering operation and maintenance cost, secondary pollution, long-term degradation stability, slow release time, slow release stability, increase in functional microbial flora, increase in total DNA content, agent particle size, solid agent morphology, liquid agent viscosity, dispersibility in aqueous phase, zeta potential, operability of agent preparation, and engineering operation management difficulty. Then, the weight of the indicators was determined by using the best-worst method (BWM), and evaluation criteria was established based on relevant norms and literature. Both and the indicators aggregation simple additive weighting (SAW) method constitute a quantitative evaluation model. The above content together constitutes a new evaluation system for biological remediation on organic pollution in groundwater using slow-release agents, which was defined as AOBS evaluation system. In order to verify the rationality and scientificity of the evaluation system, a typical bioremediation slow-release agent was evaluated using the established AOBS evaluation system. The results showed that the evaluation system could reasonably and comprehensively evaluate bioremediation through slow-release agents and provide suggestions for agent improvement.
