Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (TCE), common industrial solvents, are among the most frequent contaminants found in groundwater supplies. Due to the potential toxicity and carcinogenicity of chlorinated ethylenes, knowledge about their transformation potential is important in evaluating their environmental fate.

Electron donor limitations likely reduce microbial enhanced trichloroethene (TCE) dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) dissolution. This study quantitatively examined the relation between the DNAPL dissolution enhancement and the electron donor supply rate. An experiment used diffusion-cells with a 5.5 cm
