ABSTRACT:
In contaminated media, transformation of organoleads, especially tetraethyllead, into inorganic form is achieved by stimulation of indigenous microbial populations. Complex biological extracts and other nutrient amendments promote microbial activity under aerobic or anaerobic conditions. Under anaerobic conditions, sulfide production by sulfate reducing bacteria is especially promoted. Transformation to the inorganic form reduces lead toxicity and mobility in ground water supplies.
