Bioremediation in the Field Search System (Version 2.1)BFSS is a PC-based database of information on waste sites where bioremediation is being tested or implemented, or has been completed. BFSS allows users to search and view data on specific types of bioremediation sites and print reports of selected information. BFSS provides access to information on over 450 bioremediation sites nationwide, a number that is expected to double or triple in subsequent versions of BFSS. The database spans both full-scale efforts and treatability studies, and includes data on location, media and contaminants treated, ex situ and in situ technologies, costs, and performance.
