Process for soil remediation and apparatus used therefor United States Patent 05906932

05906932 is referenced by 3 patents and cites 26 patents.

A soil remedying process for the soil contaminated with a volatile pollutant, which comprises the steps of forming in a probe a remediation site containing a microorganism which can degrade the volatile pollutant, introducing the volatile pollutant into the remediation site in the probe, and degrading the volatile pollutant by the microorganism.
