Abstract
An in situ trickling filter system, named Trickling Trench, is being used to treat biodegradable organic compounds at a site underlain by silt and clay. This method provides the containment advantages of pump-and-treat remediation with the low-cost benefits of in situ bioremediation. A design method is presented using a conventional trickling filter analytical model with kinetic coefficients for various organic compounds calculated from published data. Performance monitoring data obtained from the Trickling Trench bioreactor are compared to design predictions.
