A solar-powered pump operating in the system's extraction/collection trench recirculates ground water through the 10,000-ft3 bioreactor and into the aquifer to produce high-carbon leachate and enhance volatile organic compounds(VOC) biodegradation. Since startup, the system has transferred around 1,300 m3/yr of organic carbon-enriched leachate from the bioreactor into the aquifer. Ground water recirculation through the bioreactor has achieved a 98% reduction in trichloroethene (TCE) concentrations within the bioreactor and a 90-97% reduction in plume toxicity in hotspot wells between the bioreactor cell and the removal trench.
