Carbon Additions Most experiments involving the addition of carbon sources
have been performed in an attempt to enhance the rate of PCB dechlorination. If
the anaerobic biotransformation of PCBs is limited to reductive dechlorination,
then ...

involving carbon additions is determining if carbon is a limiting factor in
unamended sediments. Sediments themselves provide relatively large amounts
