The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), working with the Interagency DNAPL Consortium, completed an independent evaluation of microbial responses to ground-water remediation technology demonstrations at Launch Pad 34 at Cape Canaveral Air Station in Brevard County Florida.
The three selected technologies were permanganate-based in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO), six-phase heating (SPH), and steam injection (SI).
Comprehensive spatial and temporal screening data suggested that the technology applications did not significantly alter the site's microbial community structure.
