 | The primary quantitative objective was to assess the effectiveness of the PMSO technology with respect to reducing the flux of dissolved explosive compounds in soil emanating from surface deposited munition residues. This objective was examined during the SP1 Demonstration. The PMSO with the higher oil concentration exceeded all the performance objectives. RDX and the RDX breakdown product, hexahydro-1-nitroso-3.5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine (MNX), were the primary explosive-related compounds detected. The PMSO reduced the pore ... |

| A combination of Sphagnum peat moss and crude soybean oil (PMSO) was examined as an in place treatment option for reducing the transport of dissolved explosives from munition residues on active training ranges. An evaluation was performed using outdoor ex situ soil plots at the Massachusetts Military Reservation (MMR) in MA. The study was directed at measuring the reduction in the flux of explosive compounds (i.e., RDX, HMX, TNT) from ... |

|
 | The overall goal of this project was to gain a better understanding of the microbial ecology of explosives compound biodegradation in groundwater. Deciphering which organisms are involved with explosives degradation under various in situ conditions could lead to better diagnostic and monitoring tools for bioremediation of energetics based on biomarkers, as well as lead to better conceptual and predictive models. Initially, the scope of this project included most of the ... |
