WSRC-STI-2006-00083, Revision 1, 161 pp, Aug 2006
This guide covers the following EA approaches: (1) hydraulic manipulation to reduce contaminant infiltration using low-permeability barriers, diffusion barriers, covers, encapsulation, and diversion of electron acceptors; (2) passive residual source reduction (e.g., bioventing); (3) increase in system attenuation capacity via biological processes, such as bioaugmentation, biostimulation, and wetlands development and other plant-based methods; (4) abiotic and biologically mediated abiotic attenuation methods; and (5) reactive barriers.

Manual for Biological Remediation Techniques
International Centre for Soil and Contaminated Sites, 81 pp, 2006
Provides an initial overview of selected organic contaminants, describes their susceptibility to microbial degradation in soil and ground water, and reviews their treatment potential by land farming, biobeds, bioreactors, bioslurping, bioventing, biosparging, bioscreen, bioaugmentation, and monitored natural attenuation. Monitoring of bioremediation progress is also discussed.
