Biofilm development in a planar fracture : persistence to starvation and resistance to flow velocity / Nathalie Ross ... [et al.].: En13-5/03-158E-PDF
"Biobarriers are a promising approach to control groundwater movement in aquifers. A glass-fracture plane apparatus was designed to monitor a biofilm under 50 days of biostimulation with invertose followed by 45 days of persistence to starvation, and 5 days of resistance to an increase in flow velocity. Direct observations were performed using a light transmittance probe whereas indirect indicators were obtained by enumerating planktonic bacteria, monitoring the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), and conducting tracer experiments, which included modeling of dimensionless concentrations using an analytical model for two-dimensional advection-dispersion"--Abstract.
