addition of suitable electron donors could shorten the acclimation period and
stimulate reductive dehalogenation processes . A similar approach was found
successful in stimulating the dehalogenation of an Arochlor 1242 PCB mixture (

Another environmental parameter influencing the onset of aryl dehalogenation
activity is the presence of alternative electron acceptors . As mentioned above , it
is currently believed that haloaromatic compounds serve as alternate electron ...

Alternatively , halogenated aliphatic and aromatic compounds often only serve as
alternative electron sinks . Though the actual mechanism of reductive
dehalogenation is still unclear , factors that influence the process include the type
